Weird creatures in saltwater tank

25 9:36:36

Question
I found two round, disk-shaped amber colored creatures.  They move or creep like snails & starfish.  They have a hole on their top & sometimes they lay flat & sometimes they form a peak like a shell.  I looked all over online. Could you tell me what they are?  Thank you.

Answer
Hello Ave,

I am sorry, but I would need a much better description or a picture to help me id anything.

Does this have a 'hard' shell on the outside?  One sided shell, like a snail, but flatter?


Pleaes try to upload a picture here, or you can post it on my new forum at www.thelittleocean.com

there are other people whe might be able to ID snails better then I, so please join the forum and I look forware to figureing out what you got crawling around your tank?


btw:  what else do you have in your tank?  fish, corals? etc
