Montipora Eating Nudibranches
I've done quite a bit of reading and these sound nearly impossible to get rid of. And certainly impossible without removing corals from your tank. If nothing really successfully kills them (definitely not reg coral dips) why doesn't everyone have these?
Anyways I have them and they are really growing in numbers and doing more and more damage. Not sure what to do about it. Anyone here have any luck with them?

I had them recently also have no clue where they came from as i dip everything i ever get. I manually blew them off the corals multiple times a day with a turkey baster. I took the corals out i could and dipped them multiple times, we then picked up a mystery wrasse and yellow/purple cories wrasse. I have not seen a trace of them since.

Yup..... Any of halichoeres wrasse..... The smaller the better.... The smaller stature allows better access to the coral

Doug can you recommend a specific wrasse or two? Please let me know if you have any of them as well. If so a hold for me thx =)
New setup is going to have an isolated frag tank I'm certain of that now.

No we don't have any of the halichoeres wrasse in ATM.... Come to think of I dont remember seeing any at any of the other LFSs yesterday either(Laurie and I made the rounds .... Didn't hit WAIS or golds tho)..... Mind you I wasn't really looking for one..... I have a melenarus and love it.... They also have been known to eat flatworms and pyramid snails FYI
