The Spanish dancer (Hexabranchus sanguineus) is one of the largest species and best swimmers of the nudibranchs. When the Spanish dancer swims, the wide edges of its mantle (the parapodia) are pushed through the water in a graceful undulating movement reminiscent of flamenco dancers. The Spanish dancer is also known for covering its egg cluster with toxins taken from its venomous food in order to protect the eggs from predators.
