So despite having a few peppermint shrimps in there, my aiptasia still seems to be outgrowing what they're willing/able to touch (I have a few aiptasia blooms that are just HUGE). So shop near me is encouraging me to pick up a nudibranch or two (They actually recommended 3).
So the question is this. In a 77G tank, how many of these badboys do I really need and is there any negative to using them (apart from the obvious: that once the aiptasia is gone unless I can get them out, they're gonna die)? I'm not a big fan of trying the "take a syringe to each one" route and prefer to go with a natural solution if at all possible.
Thoughts or suggestions are appreciated. Currently there are no fish in the tank since they all bought the farm during our 5 day power outage, however I do still have a fairly substantial clean up crew in there....20 or so snails of various types, 10 hermits, and 3 peppermint shrimps.
