What is this Nudi?

[lmn420]

I found this nudi in the sump tonight and I thought it looked close enough like a lettuce nudibranch to leave alone for tonight. Any other suggestions of what it might be? Should I leave it? What does it eat? Thanks,
Lindsay

Looks like a Lettuce Nudibranch. Usually, you see them green, but they take on the color of the algae they've been eating.

thanks I definitely haven't seen any reason to remove it from the sump so far (heck I haven't seen it since). On the PSAS forum spllbnd2(Alex) mentioned it could be SACOGLOSSA ELYSIOIDEA. He also gave me this great link that has more information than I know what to do with:
