I haven't done any night viewing in ages but last night I shone my phone in there and voila they are still there but not in plague proportions. the fish clearly keep the issue in-check but the nudibranches are considerably more active at night when the wrasses are sleeping.

Keep blowing them off with a turkey baster when you see them it worked for me between the wrasses and the blowing. Mine also only seemed to attack the green monti and green confusa when i had them.
