Found on a clam mantel. The clam was added about a week ago and I inspected it well before adding.

+1 with @vetteguy53081 however if you have a fowlr or something where you could consider adding a nudi if nothing would eat it, as they can be pretty good cleaners, I would watch out for the powerhead, they can totally rip the nudibranch to shreads, and if all the peices are not removed, it can not only break your powerhead but also pollute your tank, causing corals/inverts to be stressed and perhaps die.
I dont know anything about yellow nudi's but if you decide to keep it, id do some research, as some nudi's can bomb your tank with poison
