Found this snooping around in one of my Zoo colonies

Is this the kind of Nudibranch that eat Zoo's?

If you can dip them, that would help considerably and pick off any egg sacs (curly cue white globs) off them. The yellow coris will help pick them off too in most cases. Between the dips and the fish, you should be ok.

Yep all over..... if you can't get the zoos out to dip them, then you should definitely put a coris wrasse or something like that in there.

No a dip wont kill the worms but the coriss will eat them to.
