berghia nudibranch for aiptasia

Landshark18 · 10/05/2006, 12:07 PM

Does anyone know approximately how much a berghia nudibranch usually costs at a LFS? I'm in need of a few of them to clean out my 75 gal.

I haven't seen them available locally. I think $15-25 is about the range I usually see for online vendors.

If you can't find them locally and don't want to buy online and ship them, might give peppermint shrimp a try. One store that gets them in a lot for some reason every one I would buy there they would eat the aptasia, must have been wild caught as I think they say domesticly raised don't eat aptasia as they aren't around them as they grow up and see others eat them. See if they know where their peppermint shrimp come from.
