Sea Slugs Sea Slugs, sometimes called Nudibranchs, have incredibly beautiful colors and an unusual body shape. Typically found strolling through areas of tropical reefs, their most memorable characteristic is a pair of stalked rhinophores or horns at the head of the Slug. It should be noted that only a very few sea slugs in the wild will live in a reef aquarium for any length of time. We only offer those specimens for sale.

Dwarf Sea Hare A Terrific Cleanup Crew Member An Algae Eating Machine! Description:The body of the Dwarf Sea Hare is a combination of speckles and patterns. The location of its rhinophores (organ used to smell) and its oral tentacles make it look like a rabbit, hence its common name. Sea hares are of interest to aquarists, because they are among the few species that tend to feed on those highly distasteful nuisance algaes that are avoided by the majority of the animals in our aquaria. These algae eating machines are totally reef safe and terrific for all algae control including slime algea and that bothersome green hair and algae!  In the wild, it is usually found in shallow areas of seagrasses and coral rubble. It prefers an aquarium with live rock and open sandy areas so that it can graze on algae, eating both red slime and other nuisince algaes in the tank. Like all invertebrates, it is sensitive to high levels of copper-based medications and will not tolerate bad water conditions (high nitrates).

Quantity :	Spotted Lettuce Nudibranch Eats green and brown algae found on corals, glass, sand and rock Description:The Lettuce Sea Slug is an unusual and entertaining addition to the reef aquarium. It has highly folded parapodia (side appendages), which give it a ruffled appearance similar to lettuce. The coloration of the Lettuce Sea Slug generally ranges from green, yellow, or brown. The Lettuce Sea Slug may also be referred to as the Lettuce Nudibranch, or Green Lettuce Nudibranch, although it is not a true nudibranch. It has been referred to as both Tridachia crispata and Elysia crispata. The Lettuce Sea Slug will do well in established aquarium systems, if provided ample room to forage. It prefers an aquarium with live rock so that it can graze on algae. The Lettuce Sea Slug incorporates the chloroplasts (the portions of the cell responsible for photosynthesis) from the algae into its tissues, and thus relies on photosynthesis (light) for part of its energy.

Orange and White Berghia Nudibranch This is the Aptasia Eating Nudibranch Description:Berghia Nudibranch's are a Brownish/Orange when they have eaten lately. They pick up the color from the aptasia. They are white when they have not eaten for 5 to 7 days. Berghia Nudibranches grow to around 1-1/2 to 2 inches at full length and should be kept in an aquarium of at least 30 gallons in size to provide plenty of swimming and living room for these sea slugs. Berghia Nudibranches are peaceful members of the aquarium and should not be kept with more aggressive species that may attack and harm it. Place this Nudibranch with other peaceful aquarium mates for best results. They grow to be only one inch long, they are reef friendly and can be raised in aquaria. If you have Aptasia then you can't go wrong with these little guys. Please be aware though that when they have finished eating all of the Aptasia in your tank they will starve to death so pass them on to someone else who has a need for them or give/sell them to your LFS. How Many Berghia do I need The rule of thumb is 1 Berghia per 10 gallons. Therefore, we recommend at least 10 Berghia per 100 gallons of water for a moderate to heavy aiptasia problem (50-100 aiptasia per 100 gallons). Getting the right number is important. You want to have enough Berghia in your tank so they can find each other to mate and lay eggs. The eggs may hatch and continue to populate the tank until the aiptasia are gone. Very heavy aiptasia outbreaks may require even more berghia. Food and diet:Berghia nudibranchs eat ONLY aiptasia anemones. Reef Compatibility:Very good Approximate Purchase Size: 3/4" to 1" Note: Berghia Nudibranches can be a bit difficult to care for and should only be kept by the experienced aquarium owner. Once placed in a reef tank, the hobbyist is unlikely to see the berghia again. A dwindling aiptasia population should be witnessed however. This item does not carry our livestock guarantee.
