The Berghia from down under.

I'm curious to hear about any experiences within the Australian reefing community with using Southern Baeolidia as a means to control aiptasia in aquariums.

Aiptasia can be quite the nuisance, and without being able to get berghia's here down under I've done abit of research and heard that Southern Baeolidia nudibranchs can be effective natural predator for managing their aiptasia.

Have any of you attempted introducing Southern Baeolidia into your tanks for aiptasia control? If so, what were your results?

I haven't seen any for sale but they are common where I am, I was thinking about just collecting one or two and putting them in a temp tank to see if they do infact eat aiptasia and not corals, would have to test some zoas lol
