Recommended Posts

Got a few of this Purple Nudibranch crawling around the Mushroom I bought 2 weeks back. It has probably hatched from the egg attched to the rock surface since I never notcie it till yesterday.

I need help on the diet of such Purple Nudibranch...is it REEF SAFE? I was told by a US LFS that Purple Nudibranch feed on Algae?

Thanks in Advance.

or the could also be Chromodoris sp. (carnivorous)

which ever they are> they still don't eat algae.

u can also read up all about nudis here:
