    Found this after looking at the sponge I was trying to ID earlier. It was moving around and looked like a little caterpillar.

    Stomatella snail below the sponge. :) Another good hitchhiker.

    Yup, a bit odd looking, but Stomatella nonetheless. The long "tail" indicates that it hasn't been harassed recently, or ever, since they can drop the back part of the foot like a lizard can drop its tail (kinda).

    Cheers,
