Nudibranchs are among the most
beautiful creatures on the reef, with colors and shapes that dazzle and delight.
Unlike fish that may
disappear before our eyes in a flash, the showy nudibranch glides slowly along
the substrate, allowing us the time to savor this extraordinary sight. With
their shell-less unprotected,
bodies how do they survive in seas filled with hungry mouths? How do these
sightless creatures navigate the reefs to find food and mates? What and how do
they eat? How do they reproduce? What special relationships have they developed
with other reef inhabitants? These and many more questions are answered in this
informative and lavishly illustrated book. You will never look at nudibranchs
the same way again.
