Gluttonous Marionia blainvillea

Hi Bill
We are sure you will be very interested in any firsthand information on the food habits of Marionia blainvillea. We were very lucky to assist to a special show: some gluttonous Marionia devouring the octocoralian Maasella edwardsii.

These pictures have been taken in La Grande Motte (south of France), dive site “Le Pic”, depth 9 meters, date 24 November 2001, size of the animals between 4 to 7 cm.
Best wishes
