ID on mobil invert

I have a clue that this is either a limpet or nudibranch. I need to know if is an algae eater, hopefully not my coral.

I think this may actually be a type of polyclad flatworm. Google pictures of the following genera and see if any look similar to whats in your tank:

Cycloporus

Pseudoceros

Cycloporus


Hope that helps.
