I don't know about that particular one, but since it's easy to catch and remove, why not leave it?
 
I leave everything in my tank until I see it doing harm.

I say that is awesome.  Last night I got a free skirted snail that appeared in my tank.  Probably double if not triple the size of that nudibranch you posted.  Weird huh? 
I don't think your nudi will live long, but I'd certainly try to keep it.

Wow, that's pretty cool.  I always thought the bad ones were small and tan colored.  But what do I know, I thought you had to buy the good ones.  Wink
