My friend found this diving with Stuart Cove's in the Bahammas. It was about 6" long and 2" wide. Any thoughts?

Nudibranch. The horns and polyps give it away. Does sound like a bigun though. I'll look it up in my reef set when I get home if I remember...

Looks like a Caribbean Spanish Dancer. Nice catch!

I've never been able to use that forum to ID anything. How do you manage to find anything on there?

Thanks so much - I told the photographer Scubaboard would have the answer!
