The sea slug of the day is the Melibe! (Melibe viridis)
These strange-looking sea slugs (yes, they are Nudibranchs!) are also known as hooded nudibranchs, and feed with those big 'hoods' on their bodies! They can be found along America's west coast!

Glaucus atlanticus is a mollusk that floats upside down by using water's surface tension.

It feeds on other pelagic creatures, including the Portuguese man o' war and stores stinging nematocysts from the siphonophores within its own tissues as defense.

Happy International Sea Slug Day! 🐌🌊 These colourful underwater critters may look like snails without shells, but they are gastropod molluscs. Sea slugs come in all shapes and sizes, with over 3,000 species worldwide. Many can be found right here! #InternationalSeaSlugDay

Hey!!
I know this doesn't come as a surprise, but I've kinda sorta given up posting on this account, both due to me being occupied a lot and me forgetting.
I may occasionally post every now and then, but it'll be far from daily.
Sea Slug Day is coming up, though! I'll post then!!

[Sea Slugs... Some Days! @SeaSlugDaily]
