Berghias nudibranchs

I've got a 30g cube with decent amount of rocks, COVERED in aiptasia. How many large Berghies do you recommend?

By the way, GO TRIBE! I'm originally from the Brunswick area
 
I'm guessing these are all sold now???
Not yet. I will get a final count on them tomorrow. How many were you thinking about getting?

I would say a minimum of 6 and you could so 10-12 if you wanted to eradicate faster.
I'm not very far from brunstucky at all. I actually just had my wedding there yesterday.
 
Just took this photo tonight.

To tell you the truth, flow is absolutely no issue at all. Ive had berghias eat on my gyre and inches away from the turbid flow. Ive had them living in my return tubing before lol. They only come out at night(unless they are starving) any pod eater will eat them but is very very unlikely. Unless your six line/melanaris is a night crawler then maybe. 10 dollars for large adults is well worth the money! One of the best investments ive ever made for aiptasia issues.
Your saying any pod eater well how about a manderin dragonet because I'm thinking about getting some of these because I have a good bit of aiptasia in my tank

It is very unlikely that any fish will eat them unless that fish also eats aiptasia. The nudis take on the stinging properties of aiptasia and that's why most fish don't bother them. I'm guessing your Mandarin doesn't eat aiptasia☠☠if it did, I'd start breeding that thing and become a millionaire!!

Haha no they prefer not to eat them. Well not speaking for all, but speaking for the 2 ive have. Never tryed to pick at one
 
What're their survival rates and likelihood of reproducing in my tank?
Approximately 96.74%
Actually, I have no idea since I don't know anything about your tank but for the most part I would say very good.
They are delicate invertebrates(No more so than most corals and inverts we already keep) but as long as they are handled properly and acclimated into a reef tank the survival should be near 100%
The only reason I say "reef tank" is that in sure copper and other medications put into a fowlr would certainly kill them.
If stocked at the proper rate of 2 per 10 gallons the possibility of reproduction should be very high.
 
Wanting to get 10 for my 2 tanks. But I have rock nems in both. Would they eat them or my jawbreakers?
 
I'm in need of 3 or so. Could you quote me a price shipped to 57368
