The Gold-Fringed Cerberilla has a bluish-gray body. The tips of its cerata have gold-colored fringes, and two yellow-gold lines curve from its rhinophores toward its tentacles. Juveniles can show less color and less developed features than adults.
The Gold-Fringed Cerberilla lives in sandy areas, where it hides under the surface. Its cerata help with breathing and also store stinging cells taken from its main prey, Sea Anemones that live nearby.
