I am wanting to get something to control the aptasia that is taking over my tank. I have a six line wrasse that wants to eat the shrimp and Im afraid he would with the bergiah nudibranches. Does anyone hqve any experience witht the cbb? I read they will only go after invertebrates and anemones. I have a rbta and obviously dont want to lose it.
 
It's generally not an easy fish. There is also no guarantee it will eat the aiptasia. If you do go with the CBB get a fat one and make sure it's eating.
 
I agree. I've had one in the past, great fish, and he didn't pick at my corals. Getting him to eat is the issue, if you can see him being fed at the LFS before you get him, that will put you ahead of the game. Again, its a great fish.
