Found this guy on the glass of my aquarium tonight -- it was eating a dwarf cerith snail. Maybe about 2" long and 1" wide. My tank is about 6 months old with live rock from Florida. Once I turned on the lights in the room it pretty quickly crawled back into the rock. Any idea what this thing is?

Thanks!

Here's its underside with the snail it ran off with (black dot).

That’s a shame. It’s kinda cool looking, but definitely can’t stay in the DT. It would be cool to set up a small species specific tank for it. And, unlike most nudibranchs, you already know it’s diet!!! :cool:
