Nudibranch are amazing creatures. Yet another marine animal that fascinates me. So many weird and wonderful shapes and colours :)

Again, I agree with you. They are amazing, with their shapes and colors. I don't know how many species they are: in the books you can find maybe only a 10% of them. What fascinates me is also their ability to find a partner to mate, considering some species are very rare, they are blind and don't swim. In few occasions I've seen congregations of hundreds of them, all the same species, all mating or laying eggs. How did they know there was a ';party' in that place and in that moment? How long was their trip to get there? Is their smell ability enough? As a photographer and not scientist, I prefer to think it's another miracle of the nature. :)

I agree with you, nudibranchs are amazing! :)
:icontazzy-tazzle:
I am a scientist myself and trust me, even with knowing certain things about nature - I still consider it a miracle!
You are so lucky to have seen mating and egg laying.

I know I've been lucky, but very often you see nudibranchs mating. They don't lost time, never!
