No biggie IMO. Some people want them and others think they are creepy. Part of your clean up crew. Believe me, if you found 1 he's not alone. You'll see more for sure.

Yeah, I saw one of those occupying a snail shell tonight. Not a big deal, unless he ate the snail, lol!

Good members of the cuc, can get debris that is back in the rockscape where even snails can't reach - there population will fluctuate depending on how much you overfeed. :clink:
