::ALT1 ... that the shag rug nudibranch may sometimes munch on a frilled anemone (pictured)?

::Let me know what you think. I'd be willing to pass the original as well, if you prefer. --Odie5533 (talk) 18:16, 7 September 2011 (UTC)

:::ALT2 ... that the frilled anemone (pictured) can reproduce by leaving fragments of itself behind?

:::Would that be better? I think it is more interesting. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 05:27, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

::::It's too "Asexuality 101" to be hooky. :) Rcej (Robert) – talk 06:16, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

:::::I'd be willing to go with any of the three. Some might be hookier than other, but they could all be used. Cross out the ones you don't like. --Odie5533 (talk) 13:34, 8 September 2011 (UTC)

::::::How about:

::::::ALT 3: ... that one variety of the frilled anemone (pictured) has been called "the most beautiful of all the anemones"?

:::::::I personally prefer the original nominator's hook, but all the ones mentioned here check out so I'll leave it up to Rcej and whoever promotes this to decide. --Odie5533 (talk) 07:53, 10 September 2011 (UTC)

::::::::Let's go with the original...I think 'nudibranch' is more provocative than 'beautiful'...lol ;) Rcej (Robert) – talk 08:04, 10 September 2011 (UTC)
