Thanks for sharing!!! Those pictures are so beautiful!! I thought he collected them and took pictures in a studio or something, but no he brought his mini studio with him! He must have an insanely good camera; some of those were tiny!

Re: Stunning Nudibranch Photos

I don't think they all eat coral, but I think most of them do eat very specific things. I know some eat only one kind of sponge.

Re: Stunning Nudibranch Photos

they are gorgeous but I think they are best left in the sea. My LFS had one in a 30 gallon for about 2 days. When those things die it is instant tank crash. And boy is it ugly when it dies, melts away almost instantly.
