Dear Bill Rudman,
I would like to share the most beautiful slug, I've ever seen, amazing color and elegant gills & rhinophores are like alien . I think this is a Nembrotha megalocera, if I'm wrong, please correct me. Thanks a lot.

Dear Umut,
No matter how many times you see photos of these animals it is never quite the same as seeing them alive. Yes this is Nembrotha megalocera.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
