Aiptasia-Eating Nudibranch?

[ostrow]

You seem to be the only ones to list Hermissenda crassicornis as aiptasia-eating. My searches here and on google only show Berghia with the characteristics you describe.

Indeed, what you seem to have done is taken your old (until very recently) listing for Berghia and simply picture and name only, attaching the identical description to a different animal.

What gives?

ostrow,
The Hermissenda crassicornis is a Nudibranch that will feed on smaller anemones and hydroids. we have found them to be eager to feed on Aiptasia anemones here, and so placed them on the list, instead of the Berghia. The picture of the nudibranch and the information though, have been updated to reflect this Nudibranch species. Really is a much better looking Nudibranch as well.
