Tritoniopsis elegans

A nudibranch hailing from the tropical coral reefs of the Indo-West Pacific Oceans, this unfortunate critter hitchiked on some Dendronephthya sp. coral that came into my work. He is destined to be “sumped” (put in the live rock tank), where with a bit of luck he can survive eating coral frags. Otherwise… he would eat his way through the expensive soft corals in the main display… not so good.
