    Anyone with the smarts can ID this guy for me. He looks like a slug that you would find under a log that has been sitting outside for a while lol. Definitely doesn't look like a nudibrach. or at least the pictures I've seen of them. Any help would be great. He is off to the right of the picture next to the coral.
