Dear Bill,
To accompany my message about an aeolid feeding on Palythoa tuberculosa here are photos of the white colour form and its egg mass.

Thanks Nishina,
As I said in your other message, I suspect this is the white colour form of Aeolidiopsis ransoni. I would need to know about the shape of the rhinophores to be sure.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
