djsurfs Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Nice find & pic Livingart ! I have many times been tempted to try a nudibranch, but have refrained as yet because I was worried they would end up starving in my tank... What is the longest you have ever kept a nudi alive for? Do you know how long they live in the wild? Will they eat any sponges or only particular ones? Go on, talk me out of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
livingart Posted June 9, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 nudis are alright so long as you can identify and then provide the food source finding info is hard http://www.teara.govt.nz/EarthSeaAndSky ... lfish/3/en i plug nz nudibranch species into google then start searching most can be found on their food source i just sit and observe to see if they are feeding longest i have had one is 12 months, still alive but released, don't know life span sorry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
