Found this squishy guy while cleaning our mesocosm. We are in Bermuda. Any ideas?

Your submission was removed because it violated rule #7: Identification posts must include geographic location in the title. Identifying organisms can be extremely difficult without a geographic location - please make it easy for everyone to know where you found them.

That’s what I was thinking but wasn’t sure. Very cute!

If you haven't done so already - try iNaturalist! It’s a FREE-to-use joint initiative between the California Academy of Science and National Geographic Society that crowd sources biodiversity data. It has its own algorithm to identify organisms in your photos and if that doesn't work, you can post your photos on the site or app along with a geographic location for identification from other iNaturalist users. https://www.inaturalist.org/
