Christian Posted July 29, 2009 Author Share Posted July 29, 2009 (edited) I think is a elysia crispata ''lettuce nudibanch'' If that is what it is than it's a good thing because i have lots of hair algae on my rocks.

mhart032 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 Your little guy isnt on this list well not the yellow one but if it is a nudibanch it says it will eat zoas, but this is a good list to bookmark http://www.xtalworld...um/hitchfaq.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
innate1 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 I don't think it looks like a nudi but hey I'm not there. If it is a lettuce it's all good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mhart032 Posted July 29, 2009 Share Posted July 29, 2009 After doing some quick reading it could be a Elysia it says They are herbivores which have probably hitched a ride on some green algae or an algal covered rock. They may not survive in your aquaria but I can't imagine them doing any harm. if it is that look like this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jknight1 Posted July 30, 2009 Share Posted July 30, 2009 I had a lot of those little guys in my tank as well, never seemed to bother anything. Although, now that i think about it, i haven't seen any in a long time. I guess they didn't make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted July 30, 2009 Author Share Posted July 30, 2009 I've never seen one in my tank. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
