I've had this montipora for a few months, and it has lost a lot of color since I got the frag from a reef club member. Recently I've seen these snails crawling all over it and don't know what they are! What is killing my monti cap????

From my experience, yes. They only eat montis. Now i'm not sure if they go for other monti species or just the caps but removing caps. What I did was make sure all the nudis were on the caps happily eating away and then I ripped all the caps to the base.API test kit for my measurements. I saw one who looked kinda like that on the glass. It was white, small, and a nudi. Enough of a reason to be concerned and kill it? I have only noticed the bleaching on that one coral. I also have an orange setosa, and orange monti cap. I think that's all the montipora type corals I have. Will the nudis affect other SPS, or just monti? Never really had a coral pest issue before....
