Will my Nudibranches get eaten?

[Willbiker]

Hi all

I want to introduce some nudibranches to my tank and sump but im concerned about preditors eating them. I will release them at night with low flow however here is my stocking list:

Yellow tang
Powder blue tang
Regal tang
Chalk Goby
Fox face
2 clowns
9 chromis
3 yb damsels
Large punk square anthia
Cleaner shrimp
Blue leg helmet

Will any of these fish/inverts eat them? I'm concerned about the cleaner shrimp and crab as the rest of the livestock arnt active at night...much.

What do you think?

I’d be most concerned about the anthias if anything. They will probably be ok.

They will be fine with those fish, it’s still best to place them on the sand bed so that they don’t get confused and think it’s food, normally wrasses are the ones that it’s needed to be careful as they will hunt for them in a system.

Thanks! What do you think about the crabs. Should I remover them?

Crabs are also fine, amphipods can be sometimes problematic they like to eat their eggs and slowdown the reproduction rate of the nudibranch
