I want to learn more about Nudibraches.

[Ed Hahn]

I visited a few LFS recently and found a few of these. I am pretty sure it is a zoa eater. But maybe someone with more experience can help me out.
Thanks in Advance,
Ed

That type, iirc, is more the type that goes for xenia/softies. The zoa eating ones tend to be much smaller.

Ok Ed... I need some info too! Looks like I might be in the market for a lettuce nudibranch to munch on my maiden hair but what is the con?

I want to learn more about nudi's too (no wisecracks!).

That's Tritoniopsis elegans. If you go to the species page on the Sea Slug Forum you'll find quite a few posts from reefers who found it in their tanks.

The Sea Slug Forum is the absolute best site for learning for nudibranchs & other slugs. There are quite a few general discussion pages about life history, morphology, ecology, plus the hundreds of species pages.

Leslie you are awesome. I want to learn which nudis are problems for reef tanks.

Do some searches on SSF for aquarium, tank, reef, Montipora, Porites, etc. That should turn up some of the species that regularly appear in tanks as hitchhikers/predators on corals, algae, etc.
