Nudibranch

[flyinbrian]

Hey everyone.
I came across some pictures of soe brilliant looking nudibranches. Just wondering some specs on them are they poisonous at all? reef safe?
I have never seen them for sale here in ontario. Are they easy to come by?
Any info would help
Anyone have them?
Good cleaner?

There was an article on them in a recent AFM, and it said that most are carnivorous, and thus, unsafe for reef. One was introduced into a tank by another coral, and was said to be eating that coral. If you choose to get one be careful in the one you pick out, and examine any corals that it seems to take to. HTH

All the books I have read on them say that they are poisonous, so I wouldn't put one in my tank..
