I was contemplating them too when I saw them at blue world. Shanon told me there sponge eaters. I couldn't justify buying them since I bought all my sponge. I would have lost on both ends. Once they ate the sponge and again when they starved. 😞

Not really worthy of an actual entry since they are slightly out of focus but in my defence the current was strong that day and it was hard to keep still.
In this top picture this nudibranche is at least 4 inches long.

Does any one know the function of the frills on there back
