Nudis attacking my buttons

[ozy]

Today I was looking at my tank and was noticing that my buttons are not opening as much. Upon closer examination, I found that there is an infestation of button eating nudis.

Please advise on how to deal with them. I have already tried removing them, but there are quite a lot of them.

it either you dip them under luglo solution or FW or the hard way siphon one by one out

nudibraches, they feed on your zoos... small, white orgainisms....

u can try tweezing them one by one, only to realise that you could never get them all... juz dunk ur whole rock with buttons in tap water for a few mins... that will kill those pests(maybe a bad advice but that's what i do)

flush the zoo with a jet of FW...then dip it into FW for about 1-2mins...your zoos should survive...

i did tat and there's no adverse effect on the zoo..do this as often as u spot any new nudis...

if u have lotsa zoos in your tank, do it all at the same time...so tat the all the adult nudis will be cleared at one shot...and pray that they've not lay any eggs..

Dip your zoos in freshwater with PH same as those in your tank..... Temp best kept same...... This method will kill those pesky adults but for the eggs, you will have to remove them slowly with a tweezer

I think I have a practical farm already because I caught around 10 nudis of different sizes.

Any natural bio weapons I can use? Predators?

Bro, tink a 6-line or canary wrasse would help...

Did the FW dipped just now. Was so surprised that there are actually so many of them in my hand size colony. There were at least 30, and I am not exaggerating. Some so big I am surprised I missed them.

remember u gotta dip all ur zoos...

bro, this nudis only attack zoos right? i think my zoos suffered from this fate and was unrecoverable. now that i have removed the buttons would any remain to attack my other LPS?
