any idea what this could be? Seaside find?

I was collecting shells at the beach today in edinburgh when I came across an animal I have never seen before. can't upload picture right now but I will try to describe it...

About 8 inches long and 2 inches across, sausage shaped, brown in colour on it's back, light pink on underside. Underneath it had groups of black 'feelers' running full length on both sides and just above these fellers, visible from above was a beautiful green 'feathery' coating.

It was the strangest thing I have ever seen? i thought it may have been a sea cucumber but can't find an image that looks like it?

    Upload the image. That sounds like a great find. Without seeing it I have no idea. Submit this question as you worded it in the zoology section under "Science & Mathematics." Maybe there's someone there who can nail what kind of creature you found. AWESOME!

    Sounds like some kind of SeaSlug, not too sure though, a picture would help a lot more.
