I made my first dive under the Morro Bay T-Pier this morning. Too many images to post here, but check it out at Wreckreational Diving - Road Trip, Day One. Morro Bay T-Pier or Road Trip, Day One. Morro Bay T-Pier

Nice! I did a dive at Morro Rock several years ago (just pulled up the car, got geared up, and in we went), but had no idea where we should be diving. Great to know to head to the T Pier next time! Awesome assortment of nudis you captured.

Beautiful nudi shots! Always seem to run into Aeolidia when I have a w/a lens or 300 psi left. It is still on my wish list.

Wow Phil. Amazing shots. Really dig the first Aeolidia papillosa shot, #6 Anemone attached to shell and the final Diaphorodoris lirulatocauda. What is the Diaphorodoris lirulatocauda sitting on? A Sponge? Such awesome diversity right there under the pier. What depths did you hit?
OP
I began my dive at the deep end, twenty feet! Some hardhat divers were surveying the outer section of the pier for a possible replacement, so I told them I would stay under the other section. The entire bottom is littered with shells, with most shells having anemones, nudis and blennies/fringeheads in them. I found the Aeolidia in about seven feet. The last Diaphorodoris lirulatocauda is my favorite shot. He was on some red bryozoan and I got close enough to make it look like he was crawling out of a sponge. I ended the dive at 99 minutes with an average depth of about 12 feet. I still had enough air for at least another half hour, but Merry was sick and waiting for me on the benches. I felt bad for being down so long...sort of. 
Isn't the yellow fellow with the white dots a Doriopsilla albopunctata?
OP
There were two of them and they were each about four inches long. I'm still working on an I.D.

Nudies, nudies and more nudies. I love it.
I've seen the orange nudie without black dots before at San Miguel.
