Not sure what this is exactly but I hope someone can tell me.

Very blurry.....but I would say Hydroids.

My eyes started to tear from those pix. Can't you get anything clearer?
Hydroids, aptaisia?

Sorry, I suck taking close up pics.


Is this image better?

Are they good or should I juice them?

Hydroids, hard to get rid of. Need to be manually removed. Good luck.

 

[DevIouS]

Don't think juice works on Hydroids...:scratch:

Most people scrap them off or put glue over them.

 

[Zoous]

They have a nice green color too. I thought they were good. My bad.

I just started using Joe's Juice on my hydroids on Tuesday. So far in the 3 test area's I have not seen any come back out. I am also trying to get my hands on a Pteraeolidia ianthina Nudibranch. However it is almost impossible. House of Fins in Greenwich,CT is trying to locate me one. So I figured in the mean time, might as well try the JJ.

 

[masterswimmer]

Do you have a common name for Pteraeolidia ianthina Nudibranch? I might be able to locate one.

The only common name I could find was Blue Dragon. If you can find them I would definetly like one. Thanks

Dean, thanks for the link with the pic. Helped a lot.

I will try to check my source Monday or Tuesday.

if you find them, i would like one too. i just usually leave the hydroids alone. the sorta clump into small colonies and stay away from everything in my tank. but if i had one of these to get rid of them, that would be great. i just got sick of trying to manually remove them.

Those slugs seem like they would just die after finishing off all your hydroids
Kinda like the aiptasia eating slug, but I think aiptasia is easier to culture then hydroids

 

[masterswimmer]

I gotcha Jennie. I'll post here next week when I find out.

Masterswimmer, any luck on finding that nudi?

I'm sorry I didn't post. They are tough to find. The blue dragon is one of about a gazillion nudibranchs. I did not locate any.
