Blue-ringed Rainbow Dorid [Goniobranchus geminus]
Description
Divers often spot this dorid by its bold, high-contrast blue-ring pattern set against a vivid background. It tends to cruise slowly over reef surfaces, where its coloration stands out against sponges and rocky substrate. If you watch closely, you may see it pause and “set” its body as it feeds.
