Many predators avoid the nudibranch, as they can be toxic. However, some nudibranches will cannibalize others. They are also eaten by some sharks and other large fish.

Sea Lemons eat sponges with it's radula. It's favorite type of sponge to eat is the Breadcrumb Sponge. It also eats other Sea Lemons as well as other Nudibranchs.
Nudibranchs are members of the group of molluscs known as gastropods, specifically within the subclass Opisthobranchia. These marine snails are characterized by their lack of a shell and their vibrant colors and patterns.
There are over 3,000 known species of nudibranchs, and new species are still being discovered. Nudibranchs are a type of colorful, shell-less marine mollusk found in oceans worldwide. Their stunning diversity in color and shape makes them popular subjects for underwater photography.

Nudibranchs eat bryozoans
Si. It is not.
Frilled anemones are typically consumed by sea stars, nudibranchs, and some species of fish that can tolerate their stinging tentacles. Additionally, some crabs and shrimp may also feed on frilled anemones.

Nudibranchs
Nudibranchs are members of the group of molluscs known as gastropods, specifically within the subclass Opisthobranchia. These marine snails are characterized by their lack of a shell and their vibrant colors and patterns.
Marine flatworms typically have a flat, ribbon-like body with distinct bilateral symmetry, while nudibranchs have a soft body with external gills on their back and often colorful patterns. Additionally, nudibranchs belong to the mollusk group, while marine flatworms do not.
There are over 3,000 known species of nudibranchs, and new species are still being discovered. Nudibranchs are a type of colorful, shell-less marine mollusk found in oceans worldwide. Their stunning diversity in color and shape makes them popular subjects for underwater photography.
Nudibranchs do not have a circulatory system like vertebrates do. Instead, they rely on simple diffusion to distribute nutrients and gases throughout their bodies. This passive process involves the movement of substances across cell membranes and relies on the concentration gradient for transport.
The reasons why any animal eats a particular organism is never clear. A top reason why Nudibranchs might eat 'toxic sponges' is that there was not much else available to eat and it was easy to eat the sponges. These sponges were a niche that was unfilled and the Nudibranches adapted to take it. The sponges are still partially toxic to Nudibranchs! They often have specially lined stomachs to protect them from the sponges sharp spicules and the toxins from the sponge accumulate in them. When a predator tries to eat a nudibranch it gets a nasty mouthful of these toxins.
