Specimen Request

[Whiterabbitrage]

Hello Blue Zoo, do you take special requests for specimens?
I really need a type of sea slug found commonly in Hawaii and Australia. It's called an Elysia tomentosa. latest research finds that it eats the kinds of yucky Caulerpa that nothing else likes, nummularia for instance. Could you please get some of these helpful cool slugs in please?

Great question!

We have seen this species come in to the trade in the past. It's been years though and I might be wrong but the last time we saw them was on a shipment from the Marshall Islands.

We will look into it for you and see what comes up. It will be best to send an email to customerservice@bluezooaquatics.com though. That way we will be able to get in touch with you quicker.

Take care.
