Hello, girlwithacamera! I hope you'll include this (and your other mollusk spots) in the Mollusca mission. Here's the link: http://www.projectnoah.org/missions/12147638 Technically speaking btw, this isn't a nudibranch. However, sea slug enthusiasts lump it in with nudibranchs, along with others like sapsucking slugs (eg., Thuridilla spp.) and sacoglossans (eg., Elysia ornata). A better term for referring to all these sea slugs, perhaps, is Opisthobranchs. :)
