This little guy has been in the same area for a while, that's a turquoise-colored sponge below it...

any thoughts?

That's the prettiest chiton I've ever seen.

I agree ... did you paint it yourself?

 

[ophiura]

That is simply a glorious chiton (similar in behavior to a snail - a grazer). I have never, ever seen one so beautiful.
