Hi everyone. I have brown aeolid nudibranchs in my tank. They have already eaten 4 clusters and are working on a fifth and six clusters at the moment. I can't remove the cluster of polyps as they have been permanently glued/placed down long ago. I removed the one decent size nudibranch manually with tweezers and it wasn't even near the polyps that it was eating the night before. I've been monitoring the tank since I saw the Nudibranch I removed and I've noticed baby nudis all over the polyps in question. To make matters harder I have clams, sps corals, xenia and so on. I know that Nudis have a selective diet and probably won't touch anything else other then the polyps. The problem is I have about 9 clusters of polyps/zoos left. I'm looking for a natural predator that will eat baby nudibranch as I will remove any larger ones manually; I'm basically trying or looking for a way to break the cycle with predators that will eat small nudis, but not the other members in my tank. Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.
