Does anyone know what this slug looking red spec is. Just pulled it off my recently introduced Maxima clam shell. Little horns or eyes poking out from its head.
Thanks everyone!

Possibly Vayssierea felis - a nudibranch that feeds on Spirorbid worms. The "horns" on it are called rhinophores, and they're used to sense chemicals in the water.
No way, bless the reef gods. That'd be great if it was. I was just thinking the other day how I would love to have less spirorbid worms
