Reefkeeper is on a roll


 
Default could it be?

I've been watching this for quit awhile but haven't seen it move. Would find it in a diff. spot the next day ,or not see it for awhile then it would show up. Sorry I don't have a pic. of it, but it's flat and the size of an eraser ,light brown in color with dark brown around the edge . I moved it the other night into a half cf a shell on the bottom and the next morning it had made it's way over to the rocks ,about 3in. away. It kinda looks like a sand-dollar to me ,could it be? Has anyone got any ideas what this my be?

Could be a shell-less snail. I've got one. Does your look like a smaller version of this?

Marty, thanks for getting back to me . No- this is just as round as it can be and flat, like I said I've watched it for along time to see if it would move, but haven't seen it . It's something thats really slow ,only after hours do I find it moved to another spot.
But thanks for the pic. because I think that is what I have on the back of my tank near the bottom ,just can't really get a good look at it yet.
