Nudibranch I'd needed

[Cary Meredith]

I had a finger leather and had noticed something odd, but just thought it was dieing, all of a sudden today it was gone. Found these and I believe they are nudibranch, found a picture but no name or any, worried going to eat other corals. There looks like 4 of them

Tritoniopsis elegans nudibranch. They eat soft corals. Looks like you might have eggs too.

They're leather eating nudis. They may or may not eat other softies. I've heard reports both ways. Pull them when you see them.

Thanks yes it looks like eggs as well I started pulling the ones I could get to.

Yes, I pulled three already and there are at least 2 more I can't get to now.

I agree, nice job on the ID

Well got all five of them that I have seen, keeping a close eye for more and hopefully none of the eggs actually hatch.
