Nudibranch - Embletonia gracilis

Several nudibranch species live under and feed exclusively on live coral, and this rarely seen Embletonia gracilis (25mm) may be one of those, although it is not yet confirmed that it eats live coral. It wasn't until I returned home that I noticed the second tiny one in the photograph just behind the larger one.
