ID Help - reefsafe Limpet species?
I have a lot of these checkered and spotted limpets in my tank. Anyone know if they are reef safe? I am having coral problems and can't find the cause of the problem.

I've never heard of any limpet being a problem (doesn't mean there isn't one, I just never heard of any). What kind of "coral problem" are you having?

First off they are not limpets. They are Nerites. Algae eaters. They are not your coral problem. I would be looking for something else. Try looking at night and see if anything is on your corals. I have lots of nerites. They are great for algae control.
