Comment: The Spanish Dancer is one of the most interesting things that I've ever seen. This large (12"+) nudibranch usually shelters in caves during the day. When they are threatened or in open water they make these beautiful waving/undulating motions (hence the name, Spanish Dancer) which is really pretty.
