Please help me ID this snail/ mollusk. It has a shell on the top only that covers half of it. I just saw it spitting out about 15-20 puffs of white stuff. Could that be eggs/sperm? Or maybe just getting rid of toxins?

It was probably taking a number 2 and that look to be a type of abalone. Good find. Only problem with them is that they knock stuff over, otherwise awesome specimen.
My plate coral got one the other day. Could not close around the shell but got everything else. For awhile I had a ton of little ones now only a few larger ones. Don’t know how they got in but seem harmless. Thanks!
