Stomatella snails have a shell but it can be difficult to see. Is this picture on this link what you have?

Slugs

Hello All,

I have just setup my first marine tank with live rock and after 1 day I have already noticed a few slugs like the one in the picture on the post above.

Will these slugs/snails be a problem? Will they destroy reef and small invertebrates? ..or are they a good for the tank and contribute to algea eating?

Thanks for your hepl guys!

Tony.
