Thanks Danny,
Its intersting how these photos show it 'flapping just the front of its mantle. Its usually more common in this species to see the whole of the mantle flapping up and then down. The lower left photo also shows the characteristic purple colouration on the underside of the anterior mantle, and the oral tentacles which are usually hidden from view.
Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
