Can someone identify this one for me?

Post by msblazer »

I'm relatively new to cold water diving, and very new to cold water photography. I took a shot of this little critter near Race Rocks off of Victoria. I've searched through nudipixel, and think it might be a white tipped nudibranch, but I'm just not sure. I'd appreciate any ID help.

Dendronotid dalli, perhaps? They're pretty common up around the San Juan Islands ...
