So what about these multiplying hitchhickers!!!!
I have snails...little snails...little snails that are playing leap frog with each other (that's what I tell my daughter they are doing)....that grow into bigger snails.
So I pull them out and put them in my refugium...all shapes and sizes...is this ok? or should I be pitching them?
I have slugs....little slugs.....that grow into bigger slugs...into the refugium they go....
...but they are endless
Good/bad? Doesn't matter? Will they eat my SPS if they get out of control? Are there traps for them (think I saw that somewhere)?
Anyway, hit me back.

Do they look like this?



If so they are reef safe and are a great part of the CUC.

PS sorry for the bad quality pic.

Yes, that is them. I assume that the tiny ones are just the babies, right? And they seem to be nocturnal. What about the slugs? I would also assume that they are beneficial...i.e. eating waste and algae, yes?

The slugs are most likely stomatellas, yes, also beneficial. their populations will self regulate with the food supply. Certainly no need to pitch or trap them.
