I've never seen any in Calgary. I think they don't do to well in captivity, I've had good success against apitasia with peppermint shrimp. Sometimes you have to buy a couple of them though (they seem to care more about eating apitasia when in a group).

You can find them but theres no point of having one. Apitasia nudibranchs only live for around 9 months, when they die they release toxins into your tank killing others. Just leave them in the ocean you can use paste to inject the Apitasia to kill them. You can find this at most coral stores.

I used Apitasia destroyer and i do follow their exact instruction: turn off all power head or return pump, inject 10ml to apitasia when it opens, wait for 10 mins (i wait for like 20 mins) before turn everything back. The problem is, now i seems to have more apitasias than i have before, they are even in my overflow which i can't get to them :-( I have peppermint shrimp in my tank with red tail but they don't do anything....

Sad...
