Default ID needed

It might be pointless to get an ID on this guy because I haven't seem him for a few days, but it would still be nice to know.

Nice colours. I say some kind of nudibranch, have to give me a bit to narrow it down.

It is cool. I bought it for 9 bucks as a nudibranch, they said it eats sponges, which I have lots of. I hope to see it again soon.

Chromodoris westraliensis would be my guess.

Nudibranchs and sea slugs are so cool, but unfortunately they are such highly specialized feeders.

http://www.seaslugforum.net is apparently a good resource for sea slugs and nudibranches and their relatives..

At REEFBC, We had a wonderful speaker (David Behrens) on Nudibranches. Nudis eat different things depending on their coloration, type etc...

He wrote a book that you can get if you want to find out more about them.

Ok, my guess is going to this one,

only because I can't take clicking on any more nudi pics. Man there's been some big time nudi clasification going on.
