Looking to buy a nudibranch...

December 17, 1999
From: Carrie Clark

I am interested in purchasing a nudibranch, or even a pair of them. I need to in order to combat the Aiptasia anemones growing in my reef tank. They have become out of control and have begun to sting many of my corals. I have tried a copperband butterfly and he did a great job eating all my feather dusters and polyps, but has not eaten the Aiptasia. I would prefer some colorful nudibranchs, but I don't know much about them and thus far have been unable to locate any. I live in Massachusetts. If anyone has some for sale or knows a reputable place to get them from please let me know.

Thanks!
Carrie Clark.

Dear Carrie,
The nudibranch you need is Berghia verrucicornis. Have a look at the messages below yours on that page, and you will find a reference to a place in Indiana who can supply you with Berghia.

Best wishes,
Bill Rudman.
