Spotted sea hare? Or something else?

Hi gang,

 

noticed a couple of inhabitants I had never seen before, a little less than an inch long I reckon and google points me towards a spotted sea hare.

Mainly would like to know if these are what I think they are and that they are reef safe.

I'd hate to go on a critter hunt before I head to Paris for the honeymoon tomorrow ;)

 

Any input is very much appreciated,

Kurt

Looks like a sea hare to me, what a find if my LFS had this I would buy it to eat all my algae. Your tank looks pretty clean you might want to consider putting an algae pad or something for it to eat, and possibly protecting your powerheads as that is one way these pollute tanks. Never seen one that tiny. Lucky

pretty cool little hitchhikers, bottom pic seems to be grazing on the rock. Should be fine in the tank. Congrats on the honeymoon have fun. A little off topic and hope not offend but, What kind of food ruins your sex life?...wedding cake hahaha.. Getting married to a beautiful woman has been one of the best things that ever happened to this fool. good luck to ya both

Thanks for the answers, I'm glad they are what I was hoping they'd be and I'm looking forward those observing these guys a bit more now.

While the part of the tank where the pics are taken is rather clean, I do have quite a bit of green fields for these little guys to grow up in for now ;)
I'll be sure to add additional foodsource for them when algae levels grow low and find them a new home should they get too large.

 

Of topic but Paris was great and the aquarium there has several really cool jelly tanks and a few hammerheads in the big shark tank.
