This nudibranch is quite common, even if its small size and the hydrates on which it is does not facilitate its research!
It feeds on hydrates (a kind of underwater reed) and devours the polyps.
Like all the Eolidians, this nudibranch breathes through the skin through the ends of its cerates (thorns).
The tiger shark has slender marks similars to the lines of tigers, hence its name.
When it is juvenile, these marks are round and not vertical. They change when it grows.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
