Description
Its a funny name for a snail. These small creatures have their colorful spots in their mantle rather than the shell, so they do not look so pretty when they retract. They scrape their tongues along the coral polyp, which apparently hurts but does not kill the coral. Its pretty exciting to spot them, even though they move in slow motion and do not really show off anything but their spots.
