I understand. But I kind of have a fascination with studying these things in an informal way, I suppose. But mostly, I'm queasy about killing things in the tank that I'm not 100% sure they're going to wreak havoc. Same approach I take when going to HEB. =) I'm looking for them now...they don't seem to be in the familiar places (side of the glass). I really like nudis, mostly the ornate ones with the vivid colors. As I mentioned, mine are mostly pure white and very smooth. If they had the surface features of known nudi-eaters, I would have acted by now. I'm mostly curious if anyone else has had similar nudis before. I know pics would help...working on it!
