Moving Blob?!

I thought I'd read something in this forum that sounded like this thing, but I've searched and can't find it:



It's about 8mm long and slides around on the glass. The front bulbous part opens and closes, I suppose "eating" whatever happens to be enclosed by it.

Anyone know what this is?

It's a flatworm, Acoel variety I think. They feed primarily on copepods so they are of little concern to corals and such.

Cheers
