Default Parasitic Flatworm...Remove if you have one
It looks like a clam's mantle but I guess it some type of slug ?

Keep it or ditch it? Its sitting in a QT bin atm.

Some type of flat worm. They are not related to sea slugs or other molluscs.

Ditch it. Even if it's "harmless", it will surely starve to death in your tank

Ditto, get rid of it...you aren't totally sure what it is or its husbandry/compatability regards!
Trade it in to your local pet shop!

Where did you get it?

I bet it'd fetch a pretty penny on ebay! Be sure to use words like "ultra" and "exotic" and dont forget "rare"!!! I looked thru coral books I found and I have never seen a coral called ultra anything in there. Its all gimmicks. Its all advertising ploys to make people THINK they are getting something special. So use words that get people excited and make them THINK they are getting something rare/exotic/ultra!!!

Thanks for the responses guys, I've been busy all day (and yesterday) with both our tanks.

The flatworm was in her tank...dunno off which set of LR.

She just got a PISTOL SHRIMP! I'll see if I can get some pics up.
