in my tank I have a small light purple critter that is non-moving
it is very small like 5/16 inch long by 1/8 inch wide when open...if i touch it it closes up for a bit does anyone know what this could be?

lol no offense but could you get a pic of the actual speciman, I laughed when i saw your drawing (expecting to see a pic of the tank). looks to be very interesting guessing it came in on the liverock
