When taking a second to give the rocks a close look I noticed a small 1/3 inch round black spot with a pattern of white dots. I touched it with something to see if it retracted into the rock and it di nothing. A few seconds later the center of it raised up making it into a cone shape and it started moving. I took a picture but it is not a good on. You can see it in the top left quarter of the picture. Does anyone have a clue of what it is??

Another picture sorry they are not great, but it was camera shy.

No it was flat and then the center rose up then it walked away. Jet black with a pattern of white dots in rows from the center out. I can't find it not I will get better pictures if I find it again.
 
I think it is a Limpet. Here is a better picture I removed him today. Now the question is is he OK to leave in my tank with the corals??

Limpets should be fine with corals.
