I know it is uncommon, but we are trying to culture aiptasia to serve as a food source for a culture of Berghia nudibranchs. We have had a thriving 40-gallon tank of aiptasia for many months now, but they suddenly seem to be dying off, and I cannot figure out why. Water quality, temperature, and salinity all seem to be ok. The largest aiptasia are losing or retracting their tentacles and turning a very dark color. This all happened very fast, but the whole tank is dying off and threatens to deprive the nudibranchs of food. I will attach an image of what many of the anemones look like. We have done many water changes, but nothing seems to help. Please help!
