What kind of nud is this

 

[McMullen]

Can't tell from belly view, look up monti eating nudi

 

[Jmas4]

Ok thanks I will look it up but I could not get a top view. But on the top it looks like there is spines on it

Looks like monti eating to me. I just dealt with that a month ago.

 

[reef_junkie]

Do you have montis?

 

[Jmas4]

It is not a monti eating nud.

Monti eating nuds look different from mine. Monti eaters look like it has fans on the sides but this has green spines on top

 

[Sabellafella]

Blow it off with a tiny turkey baster, then slurp it up into a cup. Then "if" you can get your hands on an aiptasia,see if shell eat it

Google Berghia nudibranch and compare. Thats what it looks like. If it is berghia they sell in the 20's range and eat aiptasia. Many different types of nudibranches often difficult if not impossible to identify. General ID's are possible but other than a few known like berghia, lettuce etc most are just either good or bad.

 

[Jmas4]

It's not a bergia either. But theye are awesome they eat aptiasia!

Either a zoa eating or monti eating. Either way you want rid of them
