Trembling Nudibranch, Chromodoris vibrata
This attractive nudibranch is named after the way its gills continually tremble and vibrate. You can see the exposed gills as a dark purple fringed circle towards the back of the nudibranch. The rhinophores are dark blue and look almost like ears towards the head of the animal.
Found in Japan, Marshall Islands, and the Hawaiian Islands.
