What is it?

Here's one for KD to ID! It looks like similar morphology as the orange one we found on a south side dive site last time you were here, but slightly bigger. This one-inch specimen was found at Pirate's Reef, munching on a soft coral down at about 40 feet (12m).

Cool! It does look very similar, except for the colour. You should send it to Dr. Bill at the Sea Slug Forum, as I believe they find it useful to show the variation in colour within species. If we are correct, it is Tritoniopsis frydis!!

Your new camera takes amazing photos :-) Now I want one.
