anybody know where i might be able to get these slugs? i work at a lfs and we have been looking and watching our lists for quite awhile to no avail. these guys are supposed to be aiptasia eaters according to Sprung(there is also a pic. in his invert book). any info or direction would be highly appreciated. thanx!

Hello,
Try Berghia Breeders & Corals, they are located in Northridge, CA. There nudi's are healthy and reproduced in their transport jar while waiting to be introduced into my tank. E-mail seaslugs@webtrix.net or try www.webtrix.net/shopcart/seaslugs/contact.asp. They sold them for $16.00 per nudi.

also go to coralsandbar.com
He breeds them and also has some good corals available as well. Also a forewarning, berghia really aren't that great for aiptasia control. You need a bunch of them to get rid of a significant amount of aips, hence they eat pretty slow.
