    Allright all, I am placing the Berghia Nudibranch order on Monday. I know that there are some of you out there that will be dissappointed when you fail to get in on this proven aiptasia killing machine. They are priced at $10.33 each and the shipping is a flat $41.00 overnight. Since I am going to have to pay the shipping regardless, whomever wants in can donate, at their discretion, any amount towards the shipping and get these bad boys for the cost. I am getting them from the following supplier, http://reeftown.com/ in case you want to check them out.  No peppermint shrip, fish or home method can get all the spawn and mini aiptasia waiting to flourish in your prized tank. These are the real deal. Don't be left out of this one.

    Thanks for the thought, I have tried them.  I have added a couple of dozen over the course of the last 6 months and continue to lose them to either the lionfish or the zebra eel.    I even put the peppermints in first thinking if they were established they may have a chance.  I don't think it has worked that way as I haven't seen any for a long time.  Joe's Juice is getting really expensive when we are talking about 600 lbs of rocks so I figuired I would give these a try.  Hope they work and that nothing tries to eat them.  Actually plan on setting a small system up to breed some so I have a greater chance of success.  What do you think?

    I've never heard of success with these either. Yes, they are proven to eat the aiptasia but not easy to keep or keep alive in your tank. Even as adults they are very very small and therefore likely to just get floated off in the overflow or whatever.

    Non the less.........good luck! I had great success with a Copperband Butterfly. Never had any problems after.
