It never ceases to amaze me that every time you look into your tank you always see something new :)
My tank is over 2 years old and I've never seen this before.
About an inch long and very slow moving, never got to see the other end.
It has a white stripe all around its circumference about half way along.

Presume a chiton of sorts.

Poor photo makes it hard to ID but from what I can make out, I think it may be a chiton.

Regards,

Looks like a Flexible Chiton (Cryptoplax larvaeformis) like this...

Very cool.

Looks very similar except the band around it was white.
Good find though!
