Could be a type of nudibranch. I would QT it until you have a positive id. Looks predatory IMO
 
Yup just looked it up and it looks just like it bout to read up on it u also said its predator im guessing towards the frags ?
 
It's impossible to know exactly what species of nudi it is, if it is one anyways. The majority of nudibranchs are NOT reef safe and will eat on corals. Especially the polyps on SPS corals
 
Yea it was the nudi one now I read up on it and a guy had one that ate his colt coral ehich makes sence cuz my frag was pretty big and I just seen the creature there after moving it thinkin the current wad too strong ... but yea after moving the frag a bit he went right back to the coral ... so I flush the guy down which leads to another question were did it came from its been about 4 - 5 months since I last purchased a frag fish ect
 
Tritoniopsis elegans. They eat soft corals. My guess is maybe it hitched a ride on a soft coral you bought?
