Monti Eating Nudi's...Help

[coralreefer2110]

Okay, the title is self-explanatory. I have pretty much lost one major colony to these little punks already.

I know there has been a thread with medication advice, anyone know the link?

Or if anyone remembers the best treatments and where they are sold in town I would be very appreciative. I hope to get this dealt with today so I don't lose any more.

Thanks everybody!!

I have never had luck with dips or medications. But I did have luck with a trio of starving peppermint shrimp and a Hovens coris wrasse.

I guess that is hopeful. I have 5 peppermints and 2 coris wrasse (yellow & green) so hopefully between the meds and the livestock I have a chance.

Cut the food back, make them what to pick at the nudis.

get a radiant wrasse.

The wrasses will only keep the populations of the nudis low. They will not completely eliminate them. This is a good article to read http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2007-09/eb/index.php I tried a few methods then finally went with the Potassium Permagnate and it worked. I killed a lot of corals with it as I overdosed it. But I think your kidding yourself it you think you can get rid of these guys and save all your montis. Good Luck!
