Hey what if Silly Sea Slug Seahorse? If I make a whole collection of Bella Sara illustrations, then I should at least have one Hippocampus in my collection, shouldn't I? :D Based on Cyerce elegans sea slugs, PLEASE look them up online and let yourself be enchanted by them! 🐌✨

WIP of Sea Slug Y/N
It was initially between Cyerce Elegans or Hypselodoris Bennetti... But I'm tempted to just have several outfits for various slugs~

Butterfly Nudibranch - Cyerce Elegans
It uses its bright colors as a defense mechanism against predators
They feed off of algae
Butterfly nudibranchs are a type of sea slug
(Unfortunately, not much information is available about this animal. Looks neat though!)

Animal of the Day!
Sea Slug (Cyerce elegans)
Tumblr media
(Photo from Alchetron)
Conservation Status- Unlisted
Habitat- Pacific Ocean
Size (Weight/Length)- 40 mm
Diet- Aquatic plants
Cool Facts- Most commonly found off the coast of Hawaii, this particular species of sea slug lacks a common name and is only known by its scientific name of Cyrece elegans. Ranging from brown to transparent these sea slugs change color when algae grows upon their body. The sea slug then uses this camouflage to hide from predators while it grazes on algae. Veins can be seen through their skin, resulting in their seemingly glittering coloration along their leaf-like body shape. Despite being beautiful and an extremely unique appearance, very little is known about the behavior of this species.
Rating- 13/10 (Sea slugs are seriously the coolest.)

A gal inspired by cyerce elegans, or the butterfly cyerce!

They are gorgeous little creatures, who art can never do justice. They're a type of nudibranch, or sea slug! They're absolutely stunning-- dare I say, more so than their colourful counterparts, cyerce nigricans! Fun fact about these little fools- they can just discard their cerata, the little leaf things, to create a diversion! They typically come in reds, browns, and yellows in order to camouflage with algae, however they are always partially transparent. Fabulous little beasts, aren't they?
