I’ll look for them when lights go out. Also would dipping the coral get rid of the nudis?

I also increased lighting. I’ve seen sps get crazy light so could that be the case too?
Also will it ever regenerate on the white spots?
Yes, mine under moderate to medium light with medium flow

u need stability w fewer changes so you can possibly identify what’s causing the issue with the coral. Like as in one thing at a time and see how things progress. Good luck.

I would look for them, they are out at all hours, not just night. I would not dip an already stressed coral, if it has nudibranchs more than likely there’s already eggs too. As stated by others above, alkalinity swings are a more likely culprit.

I can’t find any I didn’t have time to dip today but it’s definitely spreading more. I dipped it before putting it in the system the day I got it and didn’t see many pest come off it. So it’s a “no” on dipping overall?
