The juveniles of Goniodoris nodosa feed on encrusting bryozoans, mainly Alcyonidium diaphanum, Callopora dumerilii and Flustrellidra hispida. As adults, Goniodoris nodosa transfer to encrusting ascidans as adults, mainly Botryllus schlosseri, Diplosoma listerianum and Dendrodoa grossularia. However, Bruce (1963) noted that in sheltered localities they could occasionally be found on Fucus serratus and Chondrus crispus.
