Cool snail

[tchat]

Found in my sump crawling around my skimmer. Definitely didn’t buy one like this. Very cool red color. Hopefully it’s friendly!

I believe it is a limpet - good guys. I have two roaming around my tank!

cool little limpet!

Yep, that would be a limpet! Neat creature to find in your tank!

Collonista imo. Never seen a limpet move that fast or have sensories.

Yes, definitely not a limpet. They move at an imperceptible pace and rarely have visible tentacles. The checkered shell and numerous radial tentacles make this look like a Trochus snail to me.
