These have visible cerata, so definitely not vayssierea. Any corals currently closed up and not looking good?

Sorry i gave you the wrong ID on this nudie branch. my eyes weren`t open yet and i was looking on my cell phone, hard to make a judgement call. Since christmas tree grows on Porites coral and you mentioned that you scrubbed a bunch of eggs from it too that means the nudibranch are a predatory on Porites coral. KJ
