I just added a Pink Streaked Wrasse to my DT a week ago. I also have a quickly spreading Aiptasia problem. I would like to try nudibranchs. I know that wrasses can and will eat them but my question is a little more specific to the pink streaked wrasse. Since it is so small with a tiny mouth will he be a problem for the nudibranchs?

Well that sucks. Thanks.
Don't ask me how I know, but the wrasse supports the frequent addition of more nudibranchs, please!

It’s really 50/50, it depends how big the nudibranchs are and how big the wrasse is.

The dreaded sixline I have completely ignored my nudibranchs when they came out with lights on searching for food after all the aptasia was gone. Nudibranchs are nocturnal, add after lights out and that should increase chances your wrasse never sees them.

Where did you get your pink streaked? I have been looking for one for a while and can't ever find any. Thanks

They seem to be sold out at the moment but I would defiantly keep checking with them. You might want to contact them and see when they will have them available. Good luck.
