These Taylor’s sea hares (also known as eelgrass sea hares and zebra leafslugs) crawl on seagrass and eat the epiphytic algae growing on their blades. Effectively acting as natural weedkillers.

It’s official: back to the Philippines in 2027 for Dumaguete muck diving & Tubbataha reefs! 🇵🇭
Celebrating with throwbacks, starting with the "Leaf Sheep" sea slug (Costasiella sp.). They steal chloroplasts from algae to solar-power themselves! ☀️
