Is this Dermatobranchus sp?

Is this a Dermatobranchus sp.? I just found this on the glass. I have added Berghia nudibranch previously. Any chance this is the Berghia nudibranch that I've previously added? I have Lots of soft corals, so if it is Berghia nudibranch it should go correct?? The tape below includes inches and millimeters.

Welcome to Reef2Reef!

Yeah, that looks like a Dermatobranchus species to me - they're octocoral eaters (softies, gorgonians, GSP, etc.). So, it's not a keeper.

Berghia nudibranchs are different - they eat "pest" anemones, and most people consider them good.
