Nembrotha [Nembrotha]

Description

Nembrotha sea slugs are sleek, often dramatic-looking animals that stand out on the reef with bold contrasting colors. Divers may find them cruising along the seafloor or resting on substrate, where they hunt for food and blend just enough to be challenging until you get close.
