What are flatworms? Can they be cultured? I'm curious because I saw this sick looking blue and black nudibranch and appearntly it only eats flatworms.

There are flatworms which reproduce asexually in reef aquaria with bright lighting. These flatworms are of the genus Convolutriloba (sometimes called Convoluta). The nudibranch that eats them in Chelidonura varians. This nudi. never seems do to well in captivity, even in tanks loaded with the flatworms.
