Found this in a tank at LFS. Can anyone identify this as good or bad?
Goog or bad Nudi?

Its been sitting in a jar with a sock over it for three weeks and size hasn't changed? I don't want to release it for fear it will start eating zoa's or anything else. What can I try and feed it?
Found it on a rock covered in zoa's and thought it may have been the reason for some missing.

And for the record I wasn't aware it was still in there lol
Nudis are specialized eaters, each species had a highly specific diet and will only eat one thing. Since you have no idea what species this is, you will be hard pressed to figure out what it eats...and it is most likely going to starve. To help a little, nudis generally ate camouflaged to what they eat. So look for something that it resembles.

I was unable to ID it so far...
I'd just put it back in, if it were me. Anything turns up missing, you know who to blame.

That's up to the owner of the LFS but I don't want to risk it in my tank. Too bad cuz it is really sweet looking.

That is so gnarly. I have no advice though, like everyone said, they are hard to keep if you don't know exactly what they need. Most of the types we've had were short lived even though they ate voraciously.
