Are Monti's the only corals that seem to get the Nudibranch's or are there others that are prone to get these?

Just Monti's but there is some evidence that the eggs can be spread by other things.

I hear the glue trick works well too.

Holy Nudibranch outbreak. I came home from work tonight after the lights in the tank were out and I cannot believe the amount of Nudibranches. Two days ago nothing and I haven't added anything to the tank for the last month. I've used the glue on the bottom and tried to pick off all I can see. I'll pick up some dip tomorrow and see if there's anything left to save.

Anyone have any ideas of what to do with a dead Monti. It was quite nice, looked like a head of lettuce that had opened up.

For starters how are you dipping? Are you dipping then returning the coral to the display tank, or are you moving it to a QT system? If you are dipping and putting it back in it tank of origin, your not helping yourself get ahead.

Sounds like the nudi's are endemic to the tank. If all they eat is monti's just don't buy anymore monti's for a while. No food supply=a short term life
