i had them a year and a half ago and they were brown and red not this color. do they get their colors from zoas they eat?

it's a possibility. It would make sense too. I've seen them all different colors though. Green seems to be the most popular.

time to pull out the iodine and the QT tank. this sucks but ive done it before i'll do it again. last time we got rid of them in a about a month without loosing to many at all. we went after them 2 to 3 times a night with flash lights and pipettes.

sorry to heaqr about the nudis, but it is a nice macro shot. I would keep an eye on your green zoes, they mimic the color that they eat.

They are making headway on monti eating nudis with potassium permaganate. Might want to look that up as im sure it will kill those babies too.

Potassium permanganate?!? Nasty stuff! I didn't think you could buy this stuff easily anymore...
I would stick with the FW dips and iodine Jas... but that's just me! These are showing up more and more these days... plucked some out of customer's tank the other day... |

Wish I could pull up the tread. Its bought at sears. I believe in a pool product. Its dipped, not put in the tank. And it kills the eggs and nudis.

How does anyone have time to enjoy their tanks when they are too busy hunting down the numerous.... what a pain in the rear... I think mushrooms are the wave of the future!

Ok, Jon, here you go.
http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2007-09/eb/index.php Its a speedier and more reliable method. Also read this. Poly ox is potassium permaganate. |

Im scared. I never saw them before. Too bad that one is pretty. Its funny how we cant keep the ornamental ones alive but the others survive one hundred fold.
