hello everyone i have found an oddity in my tank and i researched it all last nigh and all morning today. i could not snap a photo of it but i did find some thing looks EXACTLY like it on google and did research based off that.

Now for the reason why im posting. Of all the websites and what not i came across none tell me what it eats. if its good or bad. or anything really aside from what it looks like and all that i can tell cause i have one lol.

so i would like to know if it is good or bad??

what it eats??

how to take care of it??

if it is bad where to take it??

the name that i got for it is Dendrodoris elongata

thanks in advanced

It's a predatory polyclad flatworm. They eat snails and mollusks, so you'll want to dispose of it.

They are nocturnal so check the tank after the lights have been off for a couple of hours, or very early in the morning.
