Anyone have a clue what this thing is. I think it may have hitchhiked in on a green hairy mushroom. As you can see from the first picture, it's very small. At first I thought it may have been a nudi, but it has a hard shell, though it doesn't seem to be able to fully retract into it. It kind of reminds me of a black version of a nassarius snail, though that's obviously not what it is. I'm mainly wondering whether or not it's reef safe. I'm guessing since it appears to be a true snail and not a nudi or some other type of sea slug it probably is.
