Nudi?

[Jason Jones]

I was fragging some zoa just now and found 6-8 of these guys on the plugs.
Can you please let me know if these are problematic and if so what is the best way to get rid of them.

Thank you

In my mind after many years of reefing and having dealt with monti eating nudis and acro eating nudies NO nudis are good. I would kill as many as you find and keep looking for them. Also if you don't have one a wrasse would be a good addition to your tank. I have a green coris and he is always on the hunt for anything he can eat, I'm sure he helped with the eradication in my current tank. If they came out of your display there are many more in there. I used a combo of coral rx and brightwell aquatics coral dip to get rid of them. I was fortunate that most of the corals I could pull out of the tank and dip in a small container, and the ones growing on rocks I pulled the whole rock and dipped, I repeated the process for a month although after the 1st couple dips I never saw another one.

Thank You, fortunately these were found in my frag system.
I do have a six line and Tomini but that’s all the livestock.
It sounds like I have my weekend project since I have over 120 zoa frags.
