help! nudibrach

[danfrith]

i found about a 2 millimeter long orange nudibrach in my tank next to my zoos but not feeding on them what should i do?

 

[Travis L. Stevens]

First, properly identify it. Pictures help. Secondly, it's most likely a zoanthid eating nudibranch. If so, then various dips usually do the trick.

It wasnt feeding on the zoo at the time you saw it, but it's probably having a feast while you're NOT looking.

I'd suck it out ASAP.

Are you sure it is a nudi and not a flat worm?

 

[danfrith]

i got read of it.and i havnt seen any more. it might have been a flatworm. it looked exactly like the slugs you find in your garden.

 

[RevHtree]

That dont sound like a nudi. Sounds like a type of snail.

 

[EvilMel]

Or an abalone.

 

[oddballs]

the zo eating nudis usually have furry tentacles,appendages on there backs.

Here's a little Zoo eating Nudi I found in my tank...
this little sucka was out in the open...
too bad for him...he's not getting anymore zoo's...lol

To help with identification:

Notice the tentacles all over the back. In this case, they're red but they can be just about any color. They suck up the colors from your zoanthids which makes them blend in with them better.

What is a good dip procedure to get rid of these? Will Seacheams Reef Dip do the trick? What ratio? How long?
