Mating nudibranchs (Reticulidia halgerda),or sea slugs. All nudibranchs are hermaphrodites,having both sexes,and they exchange sperm before laying eggs. Each has paired rhinophores (orange horns,upper left and centre right),used to sense chemicals in the water. Nudibranchs (meaning naked gills) are sea slugs without a shell or true gills.
