Hi, came across this little guy during a dip. I'm guessing it's some kind of nudibranch. Does anyone know? Is it okay to add into my tank?

That's not a sea hare.
Closer pic? How big is it?
Its about half a cm (0.5mm). From what I've observed it just crawls around like a slug. I've read that nudibranchs are able to swim around but I haven't seen this guy do it yet. I put some green hair aglae and macroaglae to see if it was interested in eating it but it totally ignored it!
