New Hitch hiker

Hey all,
The tank has been set up about a month now and I believe I am towards the end of cycling. The LR has been in for 3 weeks and was in great condition when I picked it up. I recieved it from a fellow reefer. Anyway I have been busy as of late trying to ID all of the life forms during this phase. Today I came across this little guy. Looks like a snail? Not a flatworm (I have those as well). Size of a pin head w/ what looks like tiny red dots on its back and two little antennae? Any Ideas? Water params are good, temp 82, 1.025 sal. Not real worried (maybe I need to be) just curious. Heres the pic

Thanks,
Ron
