Zoa issue

Having an issue with this Zoa. All the rest of my zoas are doing great. Woke up this morning and found this. Not sure if its a nudibranch or a bristle worm I have dipped everything before putting it in my tank with coral ex. It quickly escaped when I removed the cover to the tank to dip the Zoa againImageUploadedByTapatalk1352642973.785281.jpg

As a preventative measure I would dip most of your corals and definitely all zoos.

I do dip all my corals with coral Rx before placing in my tank. I just dipped that individual coral in lug old to see if that makes a difference
