was it eating the clove polyps? I'd lose it if it's hanging out there.

Sorry I don't have an ID, but I agree with crvz if it is munching on the polyps it might have to go. Catch it before it hides again.

I don't think it's eating the cloves, it just spent all today/yesterday there. The cloves themselves look healthy when it moves around and they open up.

It's an arminid nudibranch. These guys specialize in soft corals. Clove polyps are some of their favorite prey. Personally, I'd be willing to buy it some cloves to feed on since this is one of the prettier ones you'll find. You'll probably want to remove it and save the corals though.
