Nudibranch collectors???

[Mr Cob]

I was just curious if anyone keeps these as a hobby. I know most if not everyone fights them off, but the colors are so amazing...someone has to be a collector on here.

Someone posted this previously...great pics sponsored by National Geographic:

Did you kill him? I'm assuming he was a pest and you had zoas...?

Did you have him long?

[Mr Cob]

Some places that sell them. Seems they are hard to keep alive...though I suspect some people with rare or expensive zoas could say they wish that statement was true.
