Is anyone in the Edmonton area looking for some Berghia Nudibranchs?

Send me a PM before the end of this week if you are interested.

Thanks for looking.

This order was put on hold to wait for a couple of others, so there is still time to reserve your Nudi's. If you want in, please let me know by Monday (November 19/07). Prices are $27 Each or $45/Pair. Arrival is scheduled for the middle of next week.

Thanks!!!

not to discourage you.
However, there was a few of us last year that ordered some.
I don't think anyone had any luck in keeping them alive over a week.
they aren't hardy at all...for me it was a total waste of 150.00
as well, you need quite a few for a larger tank..otherwise they won't be able to find each other to mate.

Hi Neal. Sorry to learn of your loss. You have not discouraged me. I am not sure where your Nudi's were shipped from, how they were shipped, how long they were in transit, how they were acclimated, etc. These Nudi's are captive bred, tank-raised, individually packaged and shipped overnight. Most of them only have a lifespan of 6 months at best. That is if all water parameters are maintained and they have an endless diet of Aiptasia. Healthy adult pairs lay a string of ~200 eggs every 2-3 days. Stocking rates vary according to their food supply. If there is not sufficient Aiptasia, they will slowly starve.

Yep I got mine this weekend. They are in a little dish eating apatisia as we speak.

Hey if you get them to breed and can find some...once they are done in your tank, I would be willing to buy some from ya.
thanks

Hopefully all of these Berghia Nudibranch's are doing well and you are all happy with them. I sure like mine. I also like their voracious appetite for Aiptasia. They started eating and laying eggs immediately.

Another Nudi shipment is scheduled to arrive ~ December 18. PM your name and address to reserve yours today.

Thanks,
