ID - Nudibranch?
Anyone know what this is and if I should remove? Hard to get a good photo, about 1-2 cm long

You might want to do a search on Montipora-Eating Nudibranchs and Berghia Nudibranchs and see if anything looks familar. The latter is harmless, but these very rarely hitchhike their way into our aquariums. The former can be a downright scourge.
Here's a couple to get you started. http://blog.captive-aquatics.com/cap...ch-primer.html http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-0...ture/index.php Last edited by AlSimmons; 04/23/2017 at 06:05 PM. |

It looks like a berghia, monti eating nudis are pretty small. If you did not intentionally purchase a berghia or are skeptical, I would remove it.
