Sponge...

[seamonkee]

If lettuce slug (or nudibranch) then it eats algae... otherwise most of them eat sponge...

Good luck to you... and your nudibranch... cause they are hard to keep...

when u go to LFS or FF, u see the purple color or blue color soft thingie sticking out of the LR, that is what it is...

[FuEl]

thousands of species of sponges...good luck in finding the right one...ahaha

Yeah except for lettuce slug, try not to keep the rest. Very colourful but very difficult to keep due to diet. They are chemical factories so be careful shd any of yr fish kill or injure one.

I bought 2 slugs last week. 3 days later one of them gone.

I suspect it is not because it is not hardy...I think something else might have eaten them...something beneath the rock and sand...or maybe u call this not hardy?

Take a photo of the slug ....maybe I can help you identify the species.

As what some reefers have told u.

1)Some eat sponges.

2)Some eat algae.

3)Some are pest that feed on your precious corals (eg.zooanthids)

But I doubt LFS bring the third kind.

Anyway....where u bought it?
