Chelidonura nudibranch?

[Joey French]

Anyone have experiences with them? Concerned with purchasing one online if I can find one, as my once pod infested tank has turned to a flatworm infested tank...looking at Sprung's "Invertebrates" guide gave me the idea to aquire one, as their life span is not very long, they feed on flatworms, are attractive to look at, so on... Anyone have any experiences? Early on in the tank's life I identified one of this type of nudibranch which hitchhiked in on the rock, yet have seen no rise in their numbers. As I had hoped their population would grow and feed on the growing numbers of flatworms, I am now looking to get this particular species. Anyone know where to find them? My tank is small, so I don't have many options for eradication of flatworms, and I will use no chemicals to remove them. Thanks.....Joey

I've brought them in before and they definitely do an excellent job on flatworms. They work fast though so that works against them since that's all they eat. Like most nudis they have extremely specialized diets so while looking to get some, also start looking for someone you can pass them on to in order to keep them alive. Current is also a factor as they can't hold on in real strong current and will either end up in the overflow or in pump intakes.
