Zoa eating nudi?

[Reefersutherland_]

Hello, saw this guy frolicking amongst my zoas... is this a zoa eating nudi or a good one? His spikes were the same color as my zoa lashes before I took out the colony and iodine dipped it. Then he released and turned brown. Any help is much appreciated, thanks!

Bad. Get em out ASAP.

If he was the same color as the lashes, he is more then likely a zoa-eatting nudi. If your zoas are in your main tank you will probably need to treat the tank with some meds, specifically, flatworm exit.

I got the big one Cuz I could see him crawling around on em. But is there gonna be eggs/smaller ones?

More than likely I set the road aside and after an hour or so fan them to close them and you can see if there is more be quick and tweeze them I eventually got rid of them or so I hope

Do a google search for zoanthid eating nudibranch eggs, then start looking.
Plus I would probably start dipping all zoanthids in FWE.

The bad ones usually have the same coloring of what they are eating. Good luck.
