Turbo snail without a shell??

[csrobe02]

This is the weirdest thing that has happened in my tank. I just noticed a "blob" stuck to my glass, and upon closer look it was a snail, complete with the mouth sucking on the glass, tenticles and everything exept the shell. One of my snails just lost a shell right? Wrong! I put 8 snails in the tank when I started and I count 8 snails with shells, and the "blob" snail.
Is there anything I should do about this? Or does anyone even know how it could have happened?
Thanks

HHHAHHAHA. Its a stomatella or half shell nudibranch or something. Its a good thing. They eat algae and are very common hitch hickers on live rock....

Sorry. I just thought it was funny. I can feel your excitement
Just wait. Youll be finding things for months. I just found a crab in my 20 thats been set up since march.
Wait till the lights go out for about an hour and then shine a flashlight and see whats in there...

How long have you had your tank? Ive had mine for about a month and a half and all of my algae was bleaching white. I thought I had dead rock, never saw anything, not a feather duster... nothing. But since a couple days ago ive noticed some feather dusters, that crazy snail thing... and today i found... a brittle star!!!!!!!!! very exciting
If your tank is new give it some time and im sure you will see some stuff, I was convinced that I had the worst rock.
