We found a sea hare at the beach today, its awesome, he's happily eating algae already. Tons of other stuff too, including some unidentified giant sea squirts or something of the sort. I'll have pics up tomorrow.
 
I knew they inked, he has been extremely cooperative, didn't even ink in the bucket when we caught him! He swam for us in the tank. He's actually in the fuge, where food abounds, and there is no way for him to reach a pump or overflow. Here are some pics!

Dolabella? very cool you found it :) looks like he is in heaven in that fuge :)
 
Aplysia dactylomela gulf of mexico species. You actually helped us find the scientific name though, cause we checked the one you listed and it wasn't it. Thank goodness, since the dolabella gets 14 inches :sad:. This guy stays around 8, and hes about 5 right now. He's eating very readily.
