It's very pretty, we need the Nudibranch Hunter, and glad to hear that you are well enough to dive!

It looks like a nudibranch to me, but it isn't in my book.

How long was it?

It is rather beautiful!

I told you on the pier it was a very rare lesser spotted Swanage nudibranch.

It looked like it was growing on the weed rather than moving along it. It didn't look like a nudi. I'm going to look in my fish book. Just being lazy really.

It could have been a sweet wrapper.
