Ever seen a nudibranch mate? 🌊🐌 I managed to capture footage of Chromodoris annae in action. The neon colors on these tiny sea slugs are absolutely unreal through the viewfinder.

Chromodoris Annae (Anna’s Magnificent Sea Slug) - Scuba Hank NYC

Chromodoris annae, a vibrant blue nudibranch from the Indo-Pacific, captivates divers with its striking coloration and unique reproductive strategy as simultaneous hermaphrodites. Found at depths of 15-100 feet, it primarily feeds on sponges. Puerto Galera is a top diving location for observing this magnificent species.

Resilence 🌊✨
At the Oceanário de Lisboa, this little creature doesn’t fight the ocean—it listens to it. Anchored to its rock, letting the current mess up its “hair,” it still stays put… as if calm is something you can train.
