Nudi branch ,could be a zoa eatting one ,but not sure

 

[Deanos]

What coral in your tank does it resemble most? It's probably eating it. :eat:

 

[DEEPWATER]

You had one on a rock that you got off the auction at frag swap ,my guess is there was eggs or you didnt get all the little suckers . i would inspect your tank well with a flash light ,you may find more then you think

good luck

 

[FRY]

just foud onther small one,do i take all the coral and dip then again

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

You should probably dip as much as you can. You don't know how many there are.

agreed ,

try to use 2 buckets ,,one for dipping one for rinsing the coral off ,use water from your tank( ,this will get you a water change too )

Your most important task will be looking for the eggs ,they will look like this pic i posted ,those will evenually catch and youll have to thru this again

they are in a spiral shape ,very easy to look for when you see one

 

[FRY]

thanks ronen thats what i was just doing

 

[Milkbone]

Looks just like mine

That looks like Berghia nudibranch, they are coral safe. One way to tell is to stir the little bugger around & see if the bristles come off. The one you have looks strong & well fed from it?s color.
Not positive & wouldn?t risk it but the below links should help you identify. The best time to find them is in the middle of the night w/ a flashlight in-between the wholes in your rock.

are these eggs

did dip found about 25 nudibranch,are these eggs

 

[DEEPWATER]

If they are in a spiral shape and you can brush them off ,then yup they are eggs ..

I dont think they are berghias .But you never know ,,

do yu have any zoas missing or just diappearing on you ,did the nudis that came off the rock the same or somewhat the same color as the zoos ?

heres a better pic of the eggs ,look at the 2cd pic of the thread on the rock youll see the spiral shape eggs

Srry D ,you are right on tht note ,i didnt look at the pic for long

 

[reefman]

it looks like a Berghia
u can make some $ if it is :smile:

 

[FRY]

two berghia

two berghia and my looks like berghia do input them back in the tank

 

[ReeferGoneMad]

its not a berghia. its an unkown nudi. newly discovered. its proven that its a zoa eater. i had a few myself until i diped everything

 

[DEEPWATER]

look close at the nudis ,your have less feathery things on its back

if you want to know for sure ,get an aiptasia and feed them ,if they eat it then its a berghia

 

[reefman]

yes, put in a zoo and an apitas
do the pepsi challenge

 

[DEEPWATER]

Plus ,to have that many berghia you would have to have a tank full of aiptasia

 

[ReeferGoneMad]

exactly. this this is eating as it looks healthy. also the pics of the zoos you posted asking if the white specks were eggs. looks like a few are missing the crowns or tops. this nudi was doing the same to my zoos.
