Got this with some rock I got off a fellow reefer, I think it is a slug of some type.http://i1139.photobucket.com/albums/n551/Cal_stir/P1060906.jpg (http://s1139.photobucket.com/user/Cal_stir/media/P1060906.jpg.html)

It appears to be a nudibranch not sure what type but use caution with them most species are not what you would call reef safe

This thing is 3X the size of a quarter, can flatworms get that big?

This is a very large, very predatory flatworm known to feed on snails and sometimes mollusks. I had several of these come in on a coral, and it took about every chemical in my arsenal to kill them. Once they make it in to the aquarium, they’re nearly impossible to remove.
