I don't know what kind it is, but it appears to be toxic to spiders! :razz: Sorry. Couldn't help it.
Nudis can be hard to keep because they have very specialized diets. Where did this one come from?

it looks like a Hypselodoris type.
and like FITD posted they are hard to keep they will usually only last a couple of weeks to a month in a aquarium.

It looks to be a Hypselodoris bayeri. And, as mentioned, because of thier specialized diets, they don't fare well in captivity.
Nudi's are beautiful creatures... it's to bad they are collected for sale.

where did this one come from? Did you buy it or was it like a hitchhiker or something? I've never heard of a nudi hitchhiker...they are truly beautiful creatures.
