my nudibranch is hungry

[EvanStorzuk]

i have a bergia nudibranch and he hasnt eaten in days. i thought he had died actually, but i just saw him roaming the glass with the lights on. so he must be hungry but every time ive moved him he doesnt eat. so i am wondering if i should let him find the food on his own? or if i should move him.

Bergia nudibranchs like apastasa, unless you have some in your system. It may starve.

How many did you initially introduce? The next generations should take care of the small aptasia.

Reef town and Dinkin’s Aquatics recommend a minimum of three with at least two being medium size or larger. It is usually the future generations that do the aptasia cleanup. Check their websites for the recommendations.
