      I have been trying to get as much info as I can on Hypselodoris picta. Unfortunately I found your site a little too late. I purchased a Regal Sea Goddess Nudibranch with blue sponges (it just arrived a few hours ago), and thought I could share some info.

      Regal sea goddesses have navy blue bodies inscribed with yellow lines and often polka dots. They have two rhinophores in the front to detect scents and gills on their backs that look like royal crowns.
