Hey guys !
So let me start with that - my 30g cube aquarium is full of Aiptasia and after trying to remove these nasty glass anemones with hot water and aiptasia x, nothing good came out of it - the aiptasia quickly multiplied to the point where its out of control.

A friend of mine told me to pick up 3-4 Berghia Nudibranch, as that would "solve" the problem within a month.

However after reading here and there, I found that some shrimp and fish are not compatible with the nudibranch.

For that reason I am writing here, as I would like to be sure that they won't be killed from a fish or shrimp in my tank.

I have a Skunk cleaner shrimp/2 ocellaris clowns/ bicolor blenny/Bangai cardinal/2 blue legged hermits and 3 trochus snails.

My main concern is the skunk cleaner shrimp and the hermits, do you guys think these animals would try to kill the nudibranches ?

Normally I wouldn't ask such a stupid question, but in my country each berghia nudibranch goes 30 euro, and I just want to be sure that none of these animals would eat the nudibranches.

Thank you !

Hi and Welcome to R2R. :)

The good thing is that the nudibranch is somewhat nocturnal.

I would be most concerned about the hermits, perhaps you can re-home them during treatment.

I just got a batch, and my cleaner shrimp has left them alone so far.
