Counterfeit Chromodoris


This is the last day of diving.  On the first dive the divemasters pointed out a big fat yellow-green Chromodoris with red rhinophores… whoa! 

 

Isn’t that cool?  But wait, look closely.  It’s fake!!!  The crew created a nudi out of pumpkin, q-tips and parsley.  Good one!
