The odd wedge sea hare is useful as an ‘algae cleaner’
Marine gastropod molluscs known as sea hares are relatively unknown animals that have significant importance in biomedical research due to their particular nervous system. And because of their ability to consume large amounts of algae, they can be very useful in clearwater, marine aquaculture systems.
