Nudibranchs No More

If anyone has some please PM. I'm looking to introduce them to my SPS tank to eradicate some zoos that I can't get out.
 
when ya break the egg sac is that good enough or do you need to make sure to scrub all the eggs off ?
 
Are these the same as a Nudibrachs? The colorful ones? Or are they different? Please post a pic!!!

Thanks Keith
 
I was told that disbursing the egg sacks in the tank is just spreading them. I have been dipping the rocks and taking a tooth brush to the sacks and then washing them off in a buchet.

I will say that I found a lot of egg sacks on the underside of 2 mushrooms. I removed them because they were not handling the dips very well and noticed the eggs then. Not sure where else they might be hiding :(

I am just happy that my frag tank appears to be staying clean. I have not seen any there...
 
Some are ok, some eat zoos and some eat Montipora corals from what I have read. Never seen any at a LFS though.
 
The nudis I was battling seemingly diappeared after a flatworm treatment (Flatworm Exit). This may have been purely coincidental though, and I'm at a loss to prove otherwise.

If you're at a point where you've exhausted all other avenues though, what have you got to loose?

could it be that easy ?
 
Ah, I did this the last time. this is about Zoa nudi's, right?
I don't have those, it's the monti nudi's I'm concerned with.
I wonder if it would have the same effect?
 
I've had good luck battling nudis using my yellow coris wrasse. I didn't even get him thinking that he would eat them, but lo and behold, a couple of days after I got him I saw him jump on a couple of nudis. It's been 3 months, and I haven't seen a single nudi or egg since I added the wrasse. I'm not saying that all yellow coris eat nudis, it might vary by the individual just as with the seagrass wrasse. Mucho, thanks for helping to find a solution to the nudi nightmare.
 
I've got a trio of Pink Streaked wrasses and the eat up the nudis.

When I catch some in the shop I bring 'em home and put 'em in my tank to eat. They seem to like 'em and they are spawning regularly so I throw some nudis in for that little bit of natural fare. Kinda sick I know.

This is what juv. and females look like.

Who knows? Maybe it'd work well for others. They are sexually dichromatic,similar in habits to sixlines and their genus but without the attitude and are smaller. So still a cool fish.
 
I still believe in the Sea Grass Wrasse, I also believe that the Wrasse is the natural hunter when all waited for. It just has to be proven one way or the other. Trust me, it won't be long. I'll leave it at that.

Happy hunting.

Mucho
