I am autistic and nudibranchs are a special interest of mine, and this video brings me a lot of comfort when I get overwhelmed :) thank you so much for uploading!

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

You are most welcome!

[@slothz4dayz]

No way, same!! Im also autistic and have a special interest in nudibranchs :0

[@Draakie100]

I had a very challenging childhood, and at a very young age I learned that beauty can not be found in a new sports car, expensive clothing ect...ect...but it`s when I go into nature that I discover true beauty and inner peace. And sometimes nature can seem harsh and painful...but it`s all part of this amazing "circle of life and death" going on all over our wonderful universe. I wish more people would see what an absolute privilege it is to be part of this...and to be alive at all...and to be able to experience this (our still beautiful planet would be a much better place (jmho)). I thank you for this amazing upload, and I wish everybody a healthy, happy, and wonderful life 🌎☮

[@rosethecow9256]

I don't believe there's any other group of living creatures colored as beautifully as nudibranchs.

[@joanileekinard6816]

Fascinating, unusual and colorful creatures. Thank you for sharing.

[@mayareece318]

That was the best - huge thank you for including the info on each one & the year, the discoverer, really loved that! I know it must have been a lot of extra work to include that, but it elevated a great video into a documentary, might be the best one I've ever seen! Thank you! I felt like I was back in the ocean, Puerto Rico in the late 1960's, just floating & looking at amazing things.

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

Thank you! Happy it makes you happy :-)

[@ryanherrenman6640]

Thank you. Informative, and nice music. No Troubles, Just Bubbles

Fantastic Bart, that's a lot of diving to put all of that together. Anilao is one of my favourite dive destinations and you've captured the essence of why nudiphiles love going there.

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

Thanks, Gordon!

[@enriqueaparicio4749]

Magnífico video!! gracias por enseñar. Saludos

[@wasyertakeawaythaturmadeofcorn]

Thank you so much for putting that collection together. That was awesome. I've always wanted to see a ton of them all at once. Now to go find out what those frondy things on some of their butts are all about. Hmm, frond ends with a "d." I did not know that.

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

Thanks. English is not my mother tongue so I have no idea what 'frondy' means, but I know what the 'things on their butts' are. They are either their gills (to breathe with) in the dorid group, or 'cerata' (with functions in respiration, digestion and/or defense) in the aeolid group. If you want to see more nudie compilations, check out some of my other movies!

[@HerrPorinski]

Great work. You must spend lots of time with diving in south-east-asia. Are you living there?

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

No, currently I live in Belgium. But I spend my holidays diving in Asia. Maybe in the future, as my girlfriend is Indonesian. But for now, unfortunately, we are separated by travel bans, for 7 months already. #Loveisnottourism

[@dcuky2847]

Do you know the difference between a chromodoris quadricolor and a chromodoris magnifica?

[@crocketwallfass9369]

Please what is the different, at slugs and Nudibranches! And, are you know the German name of the Nudibrunch?? Regards from Germany, Croc

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

German: Mernacktschnecke / Latin.: Nudibranchia, litteraly meaning 'naked gills' / From Google : "Often the term “nudibranch” is used for all sea slugs. However, . “Sea slug” does not stand for a specific taxonomic group but they are part of different clads in the class of Gastropoda (snails and slugs including those in freshwater and on land).

Why does the slug in the thumbnail look like Astropod

[@AkulaDiAquanero]

I had to google Astropod, but indeed, the designer of Astropod must have been inspired by nudibranchs.

Hi, I am a design student at Sungkyunkwan University in Korea. I conducted a design related to sea life in this department exhibition, can I use your video? It's not used commercially at all! I wanted to play the video on a small monitor next to my exhibition. Ask if it's possible! The exhibition runs from 10.21 to 10.26 at school. If possible, please leave a comment. Thank you for uploading a great video! And if the inquiry is offensive, I apologize.
