Bill-
Thank you for all the information. I've since contacted Mary Middlebrook, who had also asked about the same nudibranch, and it looks like I'll be taking these pests off her hands. They're a problem to a coral farm/wholesaler, but for someone doing larval research they're are an ideal subject.
Thanks again,
Marc Daniels

Dear Marc,
Sounds like a happy ending for both you and Mary. I didn't know you were doing larval research. From the various reports on the Forum it looks like the larvae may be lecithotrophic [ie - non-feeding & spending only a short time as swimming veligers]. It would certainly be interesting to know for sure. Any results you wish to share with the Forum would be very welcome
Best wishes,
Bil Rudman
