    So the other night I was looking in my tank and I saw a brown with black stripes slug on one of my rocks. As I always do, I poked it and it moved! It is about the size of a nickel.

    Last night I saw a baby one...I also poked it. :p

    What are they? I cant find a picture of them on the internet.

    Were the stripes parallel or perpendicular to the length of the body?

    If I remember correctly they are perpendicular. They do not like lights so they hang out under overhangs... if that helps.
