Nudi/Slug ID?

[MinibowMatt]

these 7-12mm slugs are infesting an LFS tank. he asked if I could help with an ID....
I am thinking Chromodoris Verrieri
If they are C.Verrieri, they are sponge predators, right? Will a Lugols/FW dip remove them? What about FWE?

they are pure white, tapered to the tail, no major visible appandage near the tail or on the back...I did see a light brownish/red rim around the bottom edge, and the rhinowhatevers are dark, possibly the same brown/red/purple color...

any Ideas???

Thanx!

They won't be Chromodoris species since they don't have gills on their backs. I'm not very familiar with arminids, but that may be what these are. Maybe Greenbean or Leslie will happen by and give you a more expert opinion. They look similar to several Dermatobranchus species:

Thanx Don. I agree with you, and I talked with Greenbean, and you two are both on the same page.

Im now inclined to think it is:
