Thanks for the monti nudi pics

jc5205 · 08/13/2006, 01:42 PM

SO whats the best treatment to rid the tank of these AEFW
- in tank treatment ????

clkwrk · 08/13/2006, 01:45 PM

Please do a search . Within the first few pages of this forum you should find all the treatment info you need. But the short answer is NO there isn't an intank treatment . There are qt treatments but not a display treatment . Here is one thread there are more just search

My nudi treatment was to get rid of every monti that I have!!
Maybe Iâ€™ll try again in the future. How long would you say it takes to become nudi free in this way?

clkwrk · 08/13/2006, 02:05 PM

Few months IMO

10810 · 08/13/2006, 02:15 PM

Thanks clkwrk.
Would Tropic Marinâ€™s Pro Coral Cure be a good product to use to precautionary dip all new sps?

clkwrk · 08/13/2006, 02:22 PM

acros yes montis I have no clue as I haven't had the chance to use it on monti nudis. But the best way is to QT sps for a few weeks if you have the tank to do it in . Plus doing the dip.

10810 · 08/13/2006, 02:26 PM

I have a decent frag tank but itâ€™s linked to the main tank. Gonna have to set up a proper qt tank. Thanks for the advice

Frankysreef · 08/13/2006, 06:33 PM

This is just plain scary, I actually had a problem with those damn black crabs.. I had two of them, I stabbed them with an ice pick, and I think my old trigger took care of the rest.

MAthU · 08/13/2006, 06:55 PM

is there a certian dip i can do to get rid of monti nudis?? i have all my montis in QT..but have no clue what to do..help

trueblackpercula · 08/13/2006, 07:43 PM

Man I never knew how many different types of pest there could be. I think R/C is a great place to learn there are so many people here that if we all stick together and share what we have learned reef keeping will be that much easier

Years ago none of this information was this available and people would just think that Sps could not be kept alive. Now everyone wants to know whats the best way to frag an Sps LMAO. Keep all the pictures rolling as this tread will be around for a long time to come.

There's one in the works from what the author has said, byt currently, the WWW is your best bet. This forum seems to have the most in one spot though

Great thread guys. Still tripping on the monti nudi pics. You all prolly read a thread or two on those. No touchy! Great pics.

I was out looking for some live rock yesterday for my updraded tank. I'll be going with dry rock now thank you. There are too many reasons for coral to die already. THere arent any pest on the coral piced below. I'm keeping it that way.

GreshamH · 08/15/2006, 02:55 PM

No touchy? Nothing wrong with touching a monti nudi. Zoa eating nudi, now thats a different case

robertloop · 08/15/2006, 04:00 PM

Your prolly right. I saw the hairy looking nudis and........

clkwrk · 08/17/2006, 08:39 PM

Any more pics folks

robertloop · 08/17/2006, 10:15 PM

I guess this means no one currently has a nightmare in thier tank at the moment? We ran outta pics? Last time I had a problem I never thought to wip out the camera.

Edit...
