Help! Zoa eating Nudibranch!

[tofubox]

Hey guys,

Woke up this morning to see my tank glass covered with 4 or 5 of these little pricks. I have since remove all my zoas and did a coral dip, removed as many of them as i could and place them in the QT tank to observe.

Question is, how am i going to remove or kill the remianing nudibranch in my DT??

Done my fair share of research. Most of the chemicals suggested aint available in our LFS. I also can't introduce a butterfly in my tank, as i have a fair bit of LPS and soft corals.

Can i add a 6 line wrasse? I already have 2 leopard wrasse inside my DT. Will they end up fighting?

Need some advice, maybe any bro here can intro me their own method of removal?

Anyone knows where i can purchase, Salifert's Flatworm exit? I understand its one of the best solution.

Hmmm what u use to dip your zoa? If they r Zoa eating Nudibranch, then coralrx will be useful. For zoa, actually they r quite hardy, so even if u dip your zoa under DI water they should be fine.

For prevention u can add 6 line wrasse or yellow wrasse.

Hmmm...if the nudi diet is zoas and there's no more zoas left in your DT, shdn't these pests gonna die of starvation? So technically, no need to add any chemical to your DT?

Oh ok! So is it safe to assume that zoa eating nudibranch will die of starvation eventually not not attack my other corals?

Try add some beneficial pest predator like yellow wrasses.. may help to control the situation getting worst.. Cheers..

I also encountered a zoa nudibranch attack recently and have moved all my zoas to another hospital tank for coralrx dip.

I have an adorned wrasse and melanurus wrasse as biological control in the main tank and my intent is to starve these pets to death. Can anyone advise how long does it take for them to die?

Also I heard that these nudibranch does not feed on palys. Is that true? If yes, I can keep some palys then
