Can you ID this? Black nudibranch???

Take a look at the pic. I found this in one of my tanks today. Is this some sort of nudibranch? It has the typical extensions near the mouth and the normal gill tufts towards the back. I know its not a scutus beacause it doesn't have the hard whit shell. Any thoughts? What does it eat?

Depending on where your rock is from ( I'm guessing Ind-West Pacific? ),
my guess would be a species of Dendrodoris, quite possibly D. nigra.

Thank you very much!! I think that is exactly what it is. This is exactly how it looks. http://www.rfbolland.com/okislugs/dendnigr.html

Now I need to figure out exactly what it eats.
