- Sea slugs, or nudibranchs, are a diverse group of soft-bodied, marine gastropod mollusks known for their vibrant colors and intricate shapes. Ranging in size from a few millimeters to over 30 cm (12 in), these fascinating creatures are found in oceans worldwide, often in shallow waters among coral reefs and rocky substrates. Sea slugs are characterized by their lack of a protective shell and are well-known for their bright, often toxic coloration, which serves as a warning to potential predators. They primarily feed on sponges, anemones, and other small marine organisms, utilizing specialized feeding mechanisms. Many species exhibit remarkable adaptations, including the ability to absorb and utilize the toxins from their prey for their own defense. Despite their delicate appearance, sea slugs play an important role in marine ecosystems, contributing to the biodiversity of their habitats.
