zoo eating nudibranch removal

[murph145]

hi i just noticed that i have a slight outbreak of those zoo eating nudibranchs.... not all of my zoos are affected but how do i get rid of these lil buggers?!
i took the affected pieces out and i removed them by hand but i noticed that they have laid eggs and i couldnt get rid of all of the they are very difficult to get off
what kind of actions can i take to remove these critters?? some kind of dip or what??
thanks for anyones input!!!!

I would do a water change and use syphon and try to suck them out.

Murph, I had this problem a few months ago, here is what I did. Take the zoo's out and dip them in Iodine solution mixed with RO water or tank water for 7 minutes, rinse in tank water and return to tank. I did this 3 days in a row with no ill effects to my zoos. They were closed for a few hours but opened up well after. You will see them (nudis) fall right off. I picked any that I saw after that out with tweezers. It took a couple of weeks to get rid of them all because I had eggs as well. You can get Iodine solution or Lugols solution at any LFS. If you have any other questions let me know.
