Wierd Slug?

[fishman9]

I have a wierd creature of sorts in my tank. i have no idea what it is! It's about the size of a half dollar, dark purple with white line on it back, it's ovalish and kinda looks like a coffee filter. Sorry about the bad description i don't have my camera to take a photo. I was wondering if anyone had an idea of what it might be? any help would be great!:notsure:

Thanks! i think its some sort of slug or nudibranch that hitched a ride on some lr? it's ruffly on the edges with two same anntenna..........it's pretty cool but only comes out at night.....:notsure:

yeah, I bet it's harmless. I have some type of snail i see every so often, it's translucent with a forked tail, about a quarter inch long. I see him about once every 2 weeks, and go "oh yeah, what the heck are you"?

I don't know but they are pretty anyway. Check out this sight, scroll to the bottom where it says "photo gallery" and find that slug!!

I saw a really, really, really, small slug in my tank and the tank is about a month old...... I mean tiny , like a baby or somthing.............. it couldn't have been but a few milimeters long, it was also transparent for the most part............ :jumping: he just looked really cool , I have not seen him in a while.....
