I thought this photo of Glossodoris stellatus   would make a nice addition to the thread.

Locality: Bunaken Park - Batu Lohang, 10 metres, Indonesia, Sulawesi, 17 Nov 2006. Length: 8 cm. Photographer: Ken Tucker.

Dear Ken,
Thanks for another record of this species.  Earlier messages have suggested it is usually found associated with a food sponge. Would you by chance have any other photos which may show them eating a sponge?

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman
