Hey all!
Had a quick question regarding blue velvet nudibranch (BVN) for a flatworm infestation.. Currently the tank 2 medium/large Yellow Wrasse in it, which did not seem to resolve much of the issue, but the shear number of flatworms is too much to really manage with that alone. I understand the use of carbon/timeliness in removing the nudibranch, but haven’t found much data regarding predation.
The tank also has an elegance (which I have heard with eat the BVN.
My question is in regard to the safety of the BVN with the wrasse, are they natural predator of the BVN? Or will they be okay because of their larger size? Or are all nudibranch susceptible to wrasse predation?
Also, is the elegance going to impose an issue if the nudibranch are prowling?
Thank you in advance and have a great day!
