Rehype Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Hey guys i found this little hitchhiker during a waterchange. Since i wasnt sure whether he was harmful or not i removed him to take some pictures. Any ideas? Thanks for any feedback
kgoldy Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Have fun! ^I've clicked through this whole list a half dozen times. It's tough matching em up. I'll post here if I find it. -Edit Click through every ten or 20 or so... When you see something that looks similar, click around it til you get it. It's like mine sweeper.
basser1 Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 I don't know what it is, but I think he's a keeper! Did some Googlin' and it kinda looks like a Chromodoris lineolata http://www.nudipixel.net/species/chromodoris_lineolata/

Thanks for the link kg im going to go through it. I don't know what it is, but I think he's a keeper! I doubt he will stay alive long term i just wanted to make sure he wasnt harmful were'd you find him? He was just crawling on the glass of my display...
jgpico Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Can you get a pic of the back end of the nudi? Alot of times the ID is made based on the gills.
kgoldy Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Any coral or macro in your tank that's suddenly got chew/bleach marks on it? When's the last time you added something to the tank that wasn't dipped?

Any coral or macro in your tank that's suddenly got chew/bleach marks on it? When's the last time you added something to the tank that wasn't dipped? my coral are all fine it looks like a spongivore i feel bad since theres no way to keep it alive.
mmcguffi Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 neat! I hope you figure out what it eats and can keep it alive if it is a spongivore maybe you could post on your local forums to buy pineapple sponges from peoples fuges or maybe a cheap 'macro sponge'?
Rehype Posted February 5, 2012 Author Posted February 5, 2012 Well i founds out its actually an arminid which preys on soft coral So im glad i removed him.
