I have a handful of these that came with KPAquatics live rock. They crawl around the bottom. They are white and about 1" long. There is an astrea snail on the picture to the left for comparison.

Bad pictures due to that I had to take it with a flash. I do not see them much in daylight.

Thanks,
Albert

Congratulations, you've got new members of the clean up crew. Chitons will feed on algae film and detritus. You'll mostly find them on the rocks and glass.

Thanks for the responses. I looked at pictures of chitons but the body of this one is longer and thinner. I guess there are many types of them.
