Aiptasia Control: Berghia nudibranchs

[rookie07]

Is this true?

Berghia nudibranchs eat ONLY aiptasia anemones.

Is there a reason that everyone shouldn't use these to fight the annoying aiptasia???

When they die off(after killing off the aiptasia...or dying from something else) will they posion the tank?

Its always been real hard to get them and i think they didn't ship well when they got them. Few members tried it and i am guessing they didn't get enough or they died before they could mate/lay eggs and such.

They do work, its keeping them alive thats the problem and in the right numbers.

ive seen in an lfs in NJ that purple nudibranches cost $25+ for one. Never bought one and dont know much about them.
