This is probably going to sound abit odd to some people, but I’ve been breeding berghina nudibranchs for about a year now. As such I have a small tank that I use to grow aptasia on live rock to feed to them. The tank is 30l, full of live rock, has a cheap Chinese light and filter on it and gets a water change when I remember
This has been working great so far, I take a piece of rock covered in aptasia out and give it to the nudibranchs and replace it with the piece they have just finished in an endless cycle.
The issue is that the have just randomly started dying in that tank, I’ve been feeding them occasionally with some fish pellets and stress some of them occasionally to get more to grow.
Any ideas what could cause a random die off, I know that’s a dream for most people but not when you need them for an actual use.
did a water test, temp 25c, salinity 1.26, nitrates 5 ammonia and nitrite both 0. Didn’t do any more as I didn’t think they be relevant to aiptasia
any help would be much appreciated
