I bought some Aiptasia eating nudis from this vendor and they all lived and seemed in great condition. Packaging was top notch and communication was great as well. I would recommend them to every one that has a Aiptasia problem.

i've heard they arent a very good short term, or long term solution.

if you have too many, they will die of starvation. if you have too few, the aptasia will reproduce faster than the nudi's can eat them.

if i ever had a problem with aptasia, lots of joes juice, or kalk paste would be my #1 weapon, then if there were just too many....i'd get a copperband butterfly

I have used Kalk paste but they still come back, the main issues is the tiny ones in the middle of zoa colonies....Everything I have read and people I have talked to say they are the whip....They will eventully run out of food and starve but thats when you trade them off.....No they have oly been in the tank for about 18 hrs so still to early to tell....I can't have a copperband due to other anemones and feather dusters....Plus I really don't want to add another fish and I would have to much kalk in my tank if I used as much as I need....

Well I can say one thing so far, there was a baby Aptasia on the frag of PD's for Kammy and it has disappeared. I can't offically say it was the nudi and the same frag that is lying eggs that did it but it is gone....I wish I had the cash toget a few more....Just my expeirance so far.

Well, how much were they from Saltyunderground? Maybe I could buy and have it shipped to you? I need something to trade for zoanthids anyhow.

I'm looking for them myself but no matter where I look they are all relatively expensive. The cheapest I've seen them go for is $12 a piece and I've seen them sell for as much as $25 a piece.

They were $15 a peice.....I bought 3 and had them shipped for $65 fedex 2 day. Their shipping was very good and all have lived. I haven't seen them since but I have read they are nocturnal and they have a tendancy to disappear in your tank...They were about a 1/2 inch...One has layed egg too...
