REPRODUCTION
Glaucus Atlanticus are hermaphrodites, which means that all slugs have male and female reproductive organs.
When two Glaucus mate, both produce eggs.
The eggs are white and are in strings up to 17.5 mm long.
They produce approximately 36-96 eggs per string and 4-6 strings per hour.
Glaucus Atlanticus typically lay their eggs on driftwood or on the skeletons of their prey.
They prefer to lay their eggs out of water so their larvae egg sacks can develop.
Glaucus Atlanticus have shells as eggs but lose them when they hatch.
