I think I spawned a Nudibranch?

What the hell is this? I thought it was a piece of shrimp getting sucked in the skimmer but on second look I noticed it was trucking across the thing.


Looks like some sort of Nudibranch to me, but I have no clue what it is or where it came from.

lol you have a breeding pair of nudis lolz

it looks like a worm kind of

 

[Otto_VonBacon]

Yeah, I'm frantically googling "white nudibranch", "white sea slug", "white sea worm" etc...

I'm only thinking it's a nudi because I know they have external gills along their back and this guy seems to meet that description. He also has a nudi-esque mouth area, but so far all my googles have come up unconclusive.

 

[ryeguy28]

well do you have any other nudis ?

 

[Otto_VonBacon]

Never bought a Nudi in my life. I'm wondering if it was a hitchhiker.

^ probaly

 

[Otto_VonBacon]

Curious as to what Mr.Reef will say. I've read and nudis just don't spawn. I'm pretty certain it was a hiker.
