Hey Bill I know a guy in Berlin Connecticut who is raising them. I'm not sure if he's selling any. I'll touch base with him and see if he has any available.

That would be me... it'll be a few weeks before I have some available of a decent size.

Bill,
How many were looking to get?

So, after doing some research(which I should have done before I went looking for nudibranch!)I come to understand they feed on only aptasia. No aptasia, they die. I don't have a lot to keep any going. I guess I have to use other means to clean up the small amount I have! Thanks anyway!

Yup, they one thing and one thing only. If you decide to go that route you can always revoke them to a buddy who has Aiptasia. You'll see them on the glass in the day time looking for food and just suck them up in a pipette. I did this after they ate the Aiptasia in my main tank and they now get fed in their holding tank where I pair them up to lay eggs.

I was just considering the hunt for some. I started feeding lots of brine shrimp and noticed a small army of small aptasia. I've been pretty good with manual removal but I may need some natural help. I would go with peppermint shrimp but I hear they may nip at rock flowers anemones. If you have some availabile in a few weeks, I'd be interested. As long as the OP didn't need them.

Well have not seen the ones I got since I put them in. As far as I can tell they are not snacking on anything. But the say give it a month or so. So I'm waiting.
They also say they don't eat anything but aptasia
