That's where I just got mine. I picked up 4 of them. If they breed I'll sell some off, but it might be a while b/c they have ALOT of work to do.

I had bought some nudis awhile back when i was having an Aptasia problem, I bought Three of them from a LFS that just got them in, Had them in my tank for a couple days They already doubled and I was able to pull 20 of them by the end of the week and sell them back to the LFS. But the best of all was that they cleared up the aptasia completely not like other products that kill them but there are still cells left that can reproduce. So if you do get them they do work great IMO.

to have shipped, berghia.net and saltyunderground both have nice ones. I've ordered from both, and would probably go w/ salty next time because the shipping is only from MO, so not as far that the animals have to travel.

I would be interested as well considering all other methods have fail for me.

Just looked at saltyundergrounds site and it looks like they have a phone special for these. I may get a group order going if enough are interested.

Ill prob be ordering on wed after the holidays.

these guys only eat aiptasia and have big appetites... you may want to consider buying 2 sets as a group and pass them around to other people. Just charge the next person however much it cost you (or a little less so they dont just order them online) and then as long as you keep them alive you can pass them on and get your money back. This would keep them from dieing from lack of food and also help everyone out. you could even just keep passing on the adults and every system would probably pick up some babies.

If you have the ability to keep them alive them will thrive just like Kawicivic said. I had them for a while and I was giving them to friends to help them out, which in turn I was able to put money back in my pocket. But you are right they don't last long without food, I tried for a while to breed them but once there are an abundance of them it was hard to produce enough aptasia. I even went and bought some rocks from LFS that Aptasia on it, I am sure that under the right conditions and having all the equipment needed to do it you can be succesfull from your home but I just didn't have the room to set up the extra tanks.

30 or more nudis are $14 apiece, and shipping overnight is free!!

I ll probably buy it from someone who will not need after there tank gets cleaned up and dont mind paying half for it. I just dont think i have loads of aptasia in my tank for the nudi to survive for lifetime.

I have actually not seen my two since putting them in my tank, so I would be looking to get at least two more, depending on pickup location.
