I have these guys. They are snails. I can't think of the name of them right now though. They will multiply pretty quick but they clean pretty well...

I've got them all over in my sump and tank. They are multiplying quick. I know I introduced them only 3 or 4 months ago on a frag. They were on the bottom of the frag plug and I touched them to see what they were and let me say they can move quick for snails. Luckily that was before I began dipping corals or they might have been toast.

As the tank matures and natural beneficial bacteria grows, the less aptasia there will be IME. I have tried the Klein Butterflyfish, all was well until I witnessed my LPS coral getting nipped at.....by that time all the pests were eradicated!
Good luck Gerald. Larry
