ID Help please - strange looking snail like creature

[mntcfish]

Best way to describe is a snail with a leafy bush on its back instead of a shell. Any help and if it is a good/bad hitchhiker would be great. Thanks

maybe some type of nudibranch

Anyway you can get a closer pic....I would take it out asap..........It may be a predator

looks like a pest nudibranch dont know 100%
What corals do you have?

ok once I find it - I'll take it out - problem is I have allot of rock work. That is interesting I have had recently a large snail and 3 shrimp disappear - to pepermint shrimp and one cleaner. I have thought it might have been a rock crab and have been trying to trap it - but do you think it could be this tiny thing? Thanks for the advice - much appreciated.

oh and the corals I have are some zoos and a pink ricordea.

 

[geoj]

There is a pest nudibranch that looks like it that eat zoos, so I would dich it just to be safe...

 

[speg]

Does the guy even have zoas though? It is certainly a nudi of sorts...and way cool looking... if you only have the one coral in the tank then don't even worry about this guy (one is all I see in the picture).

I would remove that in a flash. Nudis eat more than just zoas.
