Question Berghia Nudibranchs

I think I spelled it right lol. Anyway has anyone had any experience with these for getting rid of aps? I am getting two tomorrow for my 30 gal reef tank. No fish except a maroon clown and she doesn't leave her BTA. I don't think they will be eaten by anything else...well there is a serpent star, but I keep him well fed. When they are done in my tank my buddy wants them for his and they will have plenty of aipitasia in mine as well as his.

Thanks for any advice!

Mike

It takes them a little time to "build a colony" from what i've heard, but GREAT for aps. Just give them time and be patient, they'll seek out EVERY one!

I put 3 into a 180g.They ate all the aptaisia in 8-10 weeks and there were alot.They also multiplied like crazy,I gave away a least 60.They are a little sensitive to high water flow.Turn off your pumps for an hour or so,til they get settled.

I bought them at SaltyUnderground.com. They are already dead though....if you have pep shrimp don't mix them! I have had good luck with Joe's Juice so far.
