"New one to me! This crazy nudibranch was not teeny -- about 1"" long. Cream body with brown speckling and cool yellow lines. Large foot. Rows of gills like Dendronotus? Oral tentacles flicked up and down like a cockatoo's crest. BUT THE WEIRDEST THING were these crazy long flowing 'streamers' coming from the top of each rhinophore sheath - kind of looked like worms, though clearly attached and marked like the rest of the body (cream with brown specks). Found on Tubularia. Invasive?

White Spotted Nudibranch -- a very rare sighting for a snorkeler!

Yes, I am depraved, but I was so excited to actually see this slug projecting its genitals. Amazing!
