What’s this little slug looking guy with two black eyes on top? Today I noticed a bunch of white dots against my black background. What may they be? 236033E3-D300-40A9-9871-2C0BC6F6BB71.jpeg

Could be some kind of nudibranch maybe? It's hard to tell because I cannot see the other side...

For the white dots... It just looks like Halloween has come early to your tank!

Most likely spirorbid worms on the back glass.

Looks like a Dermatobranchus sp. nudibranch to me - possibly Dermatobranchus fortunatus, but I’m not sure.

The genus is known for eating octocorals (soft corals, gorgonians, etc.) and/including GSP, so that’s likely a remove nudibranch.
