I am ordering berghia on monday would anyone like to join in? There are 15+ a little shipping just let me know if you would like one or some. I have spent 50+ on joe's juice and not stopping those that are under and between the rocks.

Yes. No reason to overdo it. It might take a little longer to clean them up, but it will probably live longer as well.
 
It is everywhere. I have 7 peppermint shrimp and although some are very young they haven't made a dent in the problem.
 
I just caution against taking too much action at once. Only bad things happen fast in this hobby. I'd say one of these Nudibranches will be more then sufficient to eat a 75 Gallon tankful of aiptasia - it might just take a little longer. And that REALLY IS BETTER then putting more in there in hopes to speeding things up, and then having 2-3 starve (later) from lack of food, rather then one.

Plus, they breed in the home aquarium. So, if you really had to, two would be enough. If your tank is infested, their population will increase as food is available. :thumbsup:

But, just like sea hares, they will eat themselves out of a food source, hence why I am waiting until someone's tank is free of Aiptasia. Plus, their sole diet is Aiptasia. It is tempting for me to order one, because I need it pretty badly. But, I would rather be responsible and buy a used one. I'll even equal the price they paid :D
 
Hehe. Strangely enough, in my old 29G tank, I had about 2-3 huge aiptasia. But they didn't spread or bother anything, so I just left them alone. I guess I got lucky! :)
