Maybe a picture of the other side would help? Does it move with legs, what does the head look like? Does it have a shell, or is it soft like a worm? How fast was it moving?

It looks like the underside of an isopod to me, but it is hard to tell. Any thoughts, @ISpeakForTheSeas #reefsquad

Unfortunately that's the only picture I took. It almost looks like a slug of some sort and has that same "gliding" motion when it was moving around. It was smooth on top without any apparent shell. I'm not sure how to provide an info on the speed part but i'd say it was closer in speed to a nassarius snail when I was watching it move around the container. Can confirm no legs.Maybe a picture of the other side would help? Does it move with legs, what does the head look like? Does it have a shell, or is it soft like a worm? How fast was it moving?

Possible Chiton. Flip it over so we can see the other side.
I can't say for sure from the pic, but my first thought would be Headshield Slug/Bubble Snail (Cephalaspidean) of some variety with a hidden or difficult to see shell (there are quite a few of these) - Haloa and Haminoea would be two genera that might be worth comparing to, for example.
