I am looking for a nudibranch that isn’t too sensitive or needy. If that won’t work I wonder is cucumbers are sensitive to perfect water parameters or not.
 
Nudibranches are generally really specific feeders they will eat one very specific sponge for example. From my bit of research it seems that there is next to no information on what any specific species eats making them very hard to keep. I have not kept any due to this so have no experience with how they tolerate water parameter fluctuations. I have kept a cuke, I had it for over a year. It was the bright pink kind about 5" long and an 1" thick. They need a nice sand bed to filter out food. I never had issues with it parameter wise but also keep things pretty stable. One day it somehow pushed past my sponge guard, and through the intake strainer (idk how but it smushed itself through the 1/8" hole and into the return pump). I thought I took precautions but definitely recommend extreme caution and planning if you go this route.
