Common name: Hypselodoris
Scientific name: Hypselodoris
Hypselodoris is a genus of colorful sea slugs, specifically nudibranchs, known for their striking patterns and hues. These invertebrates are popular in the reefkeeping hobby for their ability to control certain types of unwanted algae and cyanobacteria. They are also appreciated for their contribution to the biodiversity and aesthetic appeal of the aquarium. However, they require a well-established tank with plenty of live rock and a stable environment. Special attention should be given to their dietary needs, as many species feed exclusively on specific sponges.
