Please ID nasty slug/snail

[jdeb101]

Theres been a few times at night while I was peeking in my tank with a flashlight that I've noticed what looks to be some sort of snail or slug on the LR. It doesnt really have a hard shell on it and almost looks like it could be a turbo snail without the shell. I just saw it today for the first time during daytime crawling around. Does anyone know what this is? Is it harmful? Should I remove it?

Without a pic is hard to tell, but sounds like a Stomatella (sp.)
Good for your tank.

Really cool! It looks nasty! lol Ya, I couldnt get a good pic before he hid on me. I havent seen him doing any harm so hopefully it is what you guys said. Thanks!

I just did a photo search for Stomatella and yup I think thats it! You BRS members are the best!

They reproduce like wildfire too. All in all, they're great for your tank.
