I ordered a couple blue velvet nudis that I should get tomorrow. I just remembered I have 2 CBS in one of the tanks I was putting a Nudi in. Do ya'll think the shrimps will mess with the nudibranch? It's a 90 gallon SPS tank, bare bottom with a MASSIVE flatworm invasion.

I know I could use flatworm exit, and I allready have it, but I like the natural method better.

If the slugs get close the the shrimp, the shrimp may pick on them. However, these slugs don't have any little projections or papillae, which are usually what the coral banded shrimp are attracted to, so maybe he won't bother them. Watch for nicks or "bites" out of the slugs, you'll be able to answer the question for us pretty soon.

Cheers,
