Okay, so I'm not into QTing but I do dip since I have discovered that I had something eating my daisy polyps, clove polyps and zoas in my big 150. All of those corals are "aquastick"ed down, so I can't remove them to dip. I have been picking things out of the polyps at night with a flashlight but have yet to find a real culprit such as a sundial... etc. But whatever I've been doing (basically just dipping new additions) seems to be helping because the polyps are finally starting to come back and my zoas are taking off again!! (hoorah!)
HOWEVER... I have started a small custom cube in the living room, as my centerpiece of the room.
It's about 30 gallons, total system volume about 36gallons...
MH lighting, canister filter driven, center LR style aquascaping, and viewable from ALL 4 SIDES... (no black wall)
TO THE POINT! I bought some new zoas from my favorite store. I dipped them first in REVIVE coral cleaner...dip...shake...dip...shake... Then I fresh water dipped and shake... dip and shake... this little creeper came out!!! I have never seen one in person and the few pictures online are not helpful...
I THINK ITS A NUDI!!!!!
AM I RIGHT???
Here is the nudi (top and bottom) ... and I've been gone a while so... "HI!"

Do you have a picture of what came off? Saying you think it's a nudi doesn't help.

At the top of the bar when you post...See the little icon? In that row is a tiny little picture, click on that, then browse, find your picture and double click then when you see your picture loaded ...hit submit.
