It's hard to tell, but maybe a nudibranch, the species, I don't know.

Let's see what other people say before believing me... LOL!

Looks kind of like a nudibranch. This came in on a branch with tons of zoathid.

May be a zoa eating nudi.

Could be a type of zoa eating nudi. I would take it out and put it in a bowl of the water, JIC.

How to remove just incase? I see a couple in this branch. All I have for dip is Revive

Maybe use tweezers, or a gloved hand. Where did you get the rock from?

You can just pick it off. The problem is eggs, dip wont kill them. See if you can find any eggs probably be near zoas. Look kind of like snail eggs in a little spiral if I remember correctly.

Can also siphon them out using airline hose. If Zoa’s can be removed tank then take out and look for eggs and scrub with toothbrush and then return to tank.

LFS on a branch with bunch of zoas. Several on there. I dipped the coral. And caught the biggest one in a cup.

Its hard to tell in a bag and best in a white or clear cup but may be a reef safe berghia nudibranch. Keep it out of tank for now

What color are the zoas? Nudis eat them and take on the colors of the zoas. If zoas are brown,good chance these are ZEN.

Its a branch with random different zoa, so different colors. Looks like they are falling off in the dip

Dip is effective against them as you discovered
