Here's a great article on culturing them.
My experience culturing berghia (aptasia eating nudibranchs')

What were you feeding them? It was my understanding they only ate aptasia.

That's what (she?) is feeding them.

Yep, took one off one of my leather corals today. Sucker was attached to the base hiding. Took a razer to him, now he is waiting to be eaten. they are already working their way through 2.

Ok, when you said you removed what they didn't eat I thought it sounded like you fed them flake food or something.

Here is how I set up...just an air stone and a heater. I also only filled it half way for today.



Here one is eating

I'm sorry forgot to include I had my LFS order them. hey are whole sale

 

[Eienna]

Ah, okay.

Woke up and checked on them first thing (yes I check everybody even before coffee is made,) and though my heater had a logo on it I had missed seeing at some point. I think I should have coffee and than check on tank and cultures. Turns out, it is not a logo, but an egg strand.....must be on to something. :clap2:

 

[Eienna]

Yay!

 

[Kimberlee]

Yep 12 days away
I feel just aweful about this

 

[Eienna]

About what?

 

[Kimberlee]

How good it feels to feed these little buggers to the slugs.

LOL! Nothing to be sorry about there!

 

[Kimberlee]

So a little up date, all four are doing great.....and this is why we culture the food away from the slugs......They can eat them


And they are getting bigger


and must be happy, notice all the egg clutches

 

[Eienna]

Yayyy!

 

[Kimberlee]

Yayyy!

I know right!!

Had to update for MBI, so I thought I'd add a couple pics here too.

Got a nice pic of them making new nudis


And 1 of the first clutch mid hatch

 

[Reef Fever]

How long did you have the original nudis before egg clutches appeared?

Over night.....next day after being place in their 10 they were getting busy....I am finding that their production is effected by the amount of food available to them.
