got a lettuce nudibranch today..

ive seen these for sale at my lfs. i kinda want one now. well see how long yours last and after i get my skimmer how long my algae lasts.

 

3 days to a week for my last three nudibranchs. They are very cool looking and almost leaf like. It doesn't have strong feet and float in the tank until I turn off the powerheads. Most important, they are tiny and not effective. Don't recommend them as CUC.

 

I can see a nice clean algae-less trail behind him.. he's only covered maybe 6 sq inches of area but is working hard.

 

i dont have too much flow, and i like how they look, so i may get one. very interesting

 

well the nduibranch is still attached to my live rock and moving around in a circle.. he's eating all my red bubble algae too! sweet little addition to the reef tank.. I may get another if this one lives for a while..

 

well its been 2 weeks. happy to say the nudibranch is now moving around the tank more. and doing a good job on the algae.. I did blast my rocks free of cyano, and discovered some gha. well the little guy is going to town now. he's got a nice gha buffet in his near future

 

be sure to take pictures of the crop circles! LoL....now that would be crazy to wake up and see that on the glass!

 

May I suggest not getting two as what are you going to do when they have the tank super clean. They may starve. Good luck they are beautiful creatures.
