Nudibranches

Ok, last night we discussed the fact I can't add another fish to take care of apstasia or other baddies, and nudibranches were suggested. Now I just read on the Zoa. forum that they can do heavy damage to Zoas. So I guess I'll be going with the red stripe shrimp, and hope that's enough protection for my cube.

You have to get the right kind of nudi. They have VERY specific diets. As in the one that eats aiptasia will starve once it eats all the aiptasia so if possible catch it and pass it on to another person. The one you want is the Berghia nudibranch. You can get them from here.
They are located in Saint Louis so shipping shouldnt be too bad.

Right, I did write down that variety. So it's fine with the Zoas? I actually don't have apstasia now, I really wanted something in there just in case. So I probably am better of still going with the shrimp.

I basically wanted something in there so that IF any little baddies turned up, and I've only seen two and removed them (don't know what they were). Kind of like preventative medicine.
