Nudibranches & community fish
I just received a "tank warming gift", and cannot find any relevant info on my issue. It is a beautiful pink nudibranch, and it's floating in the bag about to go back to the LFS. What is their line of defence since they are so brightly coloured?
Is it poisonous due to the bright colouration? Will my puffer eat it, which is a no brainer since it looks like a fishing angler? How long can one be bagged since I was not planning on driving into the city. Sigh...

Nice gift but not the most practical. There are so many different types that unless you can find out exactly what you have and how to feed it, it's probably going to starve.
 A lot of the LFS will sell them but not many can tell you what they eat.

He was told they ate hair algae but I am reading they eat all sorts of stuff I don't want them to eat. I let her into the tank but will bring her to the LFS tomorrow. If she stays where she is the puffer won't see her...

I would be amazed if the puffer doesn't find it. And when he does...

Gotcha there. I could not get back into Calgary to return the little creature and didn't know if staying in the bag until tomorrow was doable. Can I put her in a bag and float her over night, or some how store her until morning? SHe is at the top of the tank buy the overflows and Griff is staying low, but I have not gone to bed yet...
Any advise on saving this fishing angler's life? Quote:

Im not really sure what you can do but hope Griff stays away. I guarantee he will eat it if he finds it though...if not eat it, he will bite it to figure out what it is.
