nudibranch hitchhiker id help??

[Themilkman248]

Ok so ive had this little pink nudibranch in my fishtank for almost 2 3 months now, but up until tonight I thought it was an anemone till it started crawling on the sand, it is an amazing pink colour and I would love to id it or find out its food, I am pretty sure it is a okenia rosacea but I would like to be positive

you cant really see it in the photo but he is a really light pink but the pink is very distinguishable.

Looks like a species of aeolid nudibranch to me. http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2005-05/rs/

That's a really odd-looking slug. Okenia rosacea is a cold water species, so if your tank is tropical it's probably not that. If it's a different Okenia species, it should still eat bryozoans. If you aren't losing anything valuable to it, I'd count it as a cool hitchhiker.

Cheers,


Don

Can you identify what kind of aeolid? Its been alive in my tank for atleast 2 3 months so its eating something but it doesnt look like any of my bought corals, he looked the most like a okenia rosecea
