This is right now on my glass. Just wanted to know if it is reefsafe. Looks like some sort of slug or snail.

Maybe a stomatella snail? They don't look much like a snail to my eye. :) Here is a link (http://www.hardcoreaquatics.com/forum/showthread.php?t=100&p=237#post237) to compare with your's. They are good guys.

a picture of the other side would be helpful.
we do have a few people here that are great at Identifying these critters, but they will need good pictures of both sides..

Does it look like a garden slug with a "fingernail" like shell on it? If so, it is a Stomatella Varia

Your picture LOOKs like it may be a stomatella...widthdrawn into itself..however, it has a somewhat conical look to it like a snail. A description of the shell would be good!

hard to say without a dorsal view as well...could be a stomatella, or possibly a chiton. maybe even a limpet...
