Nudibranch
Nudibranch Psychedelic skin tones tell predators this shell-less snail packs a poisonous punch. But most nudibranchs weren't born toxic. Nudibranchs snack on sea squirts, sponges, and hydroids that are poisonous to other animals. But instead of breaking down their preys' toxins, nudibranchs incorporate them into their own armories. And that's not all they can recycle.So-called solar-powered nudibranchs eat soft corals, which generally have algae living in their tissues. When solar-powered nudibranchs eat soft corals, they don't digest the algae, they keep them in their outer tissues. There the algae continue photosynthesizing, converting sunlight into food for themselves and their new host
