A bit late but I had to go do that thing that pays for scuba diving for a busy few weeks. Anyway, it was a pleasant dive at the metridium fields and I'm getting better at finding my way back to the pipe once we're done. I could really use some ID help on the small nudibranch and the white and black hairy looking one? It appears to be a nudibranch (gills extending towards the bottom?) but I'm at a loss. Enjoy the pictures and all critique is welcome!

Well I can't help, but that snail on the kelp is outstanding!
 
The last nudibranch is the Trapania velox. I don't know the common name. It's pretty rare!

Also, nice shots! I really like the snail on the kelp.
 
Great job on the Purple Ringtop snail on the kelp. The first white one is a little Sea Cucumber. I like the close up on the tube anemone as well.
 
Nice pics! Thanks for sharing! I used to dive in Monterey a few years ago and I loved the snails on the kelps:)
