Montipora eating nudibranch

[lastlight]

I bought a melanarus wrasse to eat mine and it did. Never saw any again.

I have both a Yellow Coris and a Melanurus. The melanurus is definately the harder working critter in my tank - we named it Hunter

Thanks for the feedback guys. Sounds like a melanarus is the way to go. Guess it's worth a shot to try and save what I can.

We've had these a couple times over the years. Manual removal, preferably at night when the little buggers are more active is best. Shut off all powerheads and pumps and get a siphon tube ready.

Its much easier taking the whole thing out of the tank but i've done this too. Use a flash light and scrape off any egg clusters, then use a toothbrush to scrub the underside/edges of the monti to remove any leftover nudi's / eggs as you siphon out water/debris as you go. You might have to do this a couple of nights in a row to get them all, but thats always worked for me. Most monti's recover pretty quick.
