The Glaucus Atlanticus, or the Blue Dragon, is one of the most fascinating creatures in the ocean. Despite its impressive appearance, it rarely grows larger than three centimeters long: http://bit.ly/Glaucus_Atlanticus

Feeling blue? So am I... In a great way! I love rocking these blue Galucus Atlanticus fins for @finfolkproductions. I'm seriously loving how light and breezy these fabric tails are! #mermaidinspiration #mermaidinspo #finfolkproductions #finfolk #finfolkmermaid #finfolkambassador #perthmermaid #mermaidperth #perthmermaids #mermaidsperth #mermaidtail #mermaidmadness #fabrictail #glaucusatlanticus (at Yanchep Beach) https://www.instagram.com/p/BsSe1ZVhm_Z/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1brw1ftr4sij2

Glaucus Atlanticus, the stunning Blue Dragon mollusk, is causing beach closures in Spain. Stay safe and informed! 🌊🐉

My Mermay entry this year! On the last day no less as per customary. 😅 I'm afraid there's no tale behind this one, although she is inspired by the Glaucus Atlanticus. These fabulous creatures are quite ferocious, feeding on venomous preys much larger than they are, absorbing the toxins, which they then concentrate and use for self-defence. They've been spotted near the coast of Taiwan recently, but don't go touching one unless you want a nasty sting. 🧜‍♀️ #mermay2021 #glaucusatlanticus #mermaid #characterdesign #illustration #digitalart #procreate #nudibranch #bluedragon #templeoftales #fantasyart #mermay #artnouveau #artistsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CPik4NRgDmN/?utm_medium=tumblr

Incredible via @fathomlesslife - The Blue Dragon 🐉💙 (Glaucus Atlanticus) Which one is your favourite? 1-7? 1 by @renatabuziak 2 & 3 by @rama__kiani 4 & 5 by Sylke Rohrlach 6 by @garretthuxley 7 by @luiscasas27 This is not science fiction but in fact a small predatory sea slug 🐌 Beside its colourful hues that provide two types of camouflage - It’s silvery bottom half, hides the slug from fish looking up from below and its blue topside offers protection from hungry birds! The sea slug uses it's sting as the next line of defense. Also when they’ve fed on their favorite food, blue bottles or other poisonous jellyfishes like Portuguese man o' war, instead of digesting the sting cells, they store them on the outside of their body which makes their skin even more poisonous than their preys. So think twice if you wanted to touch them next time. All blue dragons are hermaphrodites, meaning they have both male and female reproductive organs. they lay eggs freely in the ocean or on the remains of their prey's body. #bluedragon #rarespecies #rareanimal #oceancreatures #glaucusatlanticus #nature #strangerthings #strange #blueangel #dangerousanimal #poisonous #rare - https://www.instagram.com/p/Bp9zJF-n3aF/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=5lqoqn6di0j6
