Due to some recent financial problems I have let an aiptasia infestation occur in my tank. I have decided to pick out Berghia Nudibranchs to solve the problem. My question is that in my tank I have a pesky bicolor dottyback who kills almost anything in sight, will he also kill the Nudibranchs?

I can only speak from my own experience. No fish I have in any tank has bothered them, including my six line wrasse. They might check them out but I have not seen one eat a nudibranch.

I have a dottyback in my tank. She checked out my berghia nudibranchs but didn't bother them.

I have a 300 gallon tank and had a major outbreak of aiptasia. I tried peppermint shrimp, and six line wrasse and it didn't work. I also tried aiptasia x but I just had too much. I put in a Klein butterfly and the aiptasia was gone in 3 days.

My dottyback didn't eat them. I was worried they'd become $10 snacks. The berghia did eat all my aiptasia though :)
