Has anyone been able to keep sea slug babies or know anything about it? I have a pair of metallic blue dot sea slugs that have laid eggs in one of my systems, I know it was them because I watched the one lay them. My cerith snails lay them all the time.
 
I have zero knowledge on the subject, but it would be really cool if this works. Keep us informed as to how this goes. Oh and post pics if you can. Good luck!

well you are going to want to move them to a tank without pumps if they aren't already.

I cant find any information on rearing this specific species, probably because they rarely survive long in the aquarium trade because they are collected as adults, if i remember correctly.

anyway

thats a realy good website. the page i uploaded isn't your species but...look around.

btw. my experiance with E clarki was the eggs hatched, without me knowing of their presence. i only realised that i had the babies when i saw three tiny 1/4 inch lettuce nudi's.
