Hey everyone, first post, hoping some other poor soul had dealt with the same issues and lived to tell the tale.
I'm currently dealing with pest nudibranchs in my DT. All of my frags were bayer/RX dipped prior to entering the display but I'm guessing I missed some eggs at one point. As of last night, everything has been cut above the affected areas, remounted and placed into a frag system where they can be inspected much easier and dipped every few days.
My question is does anyone have experience with how long the fallow period of Monti and Acro needs to be before they can be safety reintroduced back into the tank? I've searched around quite a bit here and other forums but haven't had much luck finding a definitive answer. There is more discussion available online regarding monti nudi's and I'm assuming the same would be true for acro nudi's. I've seen suggestions of 2-3 months and some as long as 6 months. Anyone have first hand experience on this? Six months seems like a really long time for these things to survive with no food source?
Thanks for any input you can provide.
