Dear Fellow reefers,

I have been seeing some kind of bite marks on my coral and decided to dip in coral rx and following stuff came out. I did a video of it.
I thought it might be aefw, but from all the pictures I have seen it doesn't seem to be. Looks like some kind of nudibranch or what ever. I zoom in to them towards the middle of the video. Ps sorry about the music I certainly don't want them for Christmas lol
Also they where quiet large probably 1/4 of inch

Hi thanks for reply, coral definitely exhibits signs of bite marks!
No other acro has anything that I can see.
Is it possible Its a aefw like big aas adult version? I just never seen aefw just on pictures.

AEW- yes can do that. Fish such as angels and butterflies also.

Don't have any fish that are not reef safe only tangs.
My worry if I found 2 there must be more. I just need a positive Id.
Hopefully some one else can confirm

They are not berghia and therefore to be discarded. You will for the next 2 weeks want to look for eggs which are really tiny
