Very nice nudibranch of the aeolis family.
This nudibranch is carnivorous and keeps intact the stinging cells of living beings that it consumes, it then ejects them in case of danger. We do not know any real predator at the red-finger aeolis.
Mammals have a horizontal tail.
Fishes have a vertical fin.
The whale shark is the largest fish in the world!
Some whales are larger, but they are mammals, not fish!
Parrotfish create a protective envelope around them when they are sleeping.
So, don't put the light on them during night dive to don't to wake them up and break this envelope.
