Sea slugs

[Slimkasey]

Got an opportunity to buy a couple of nudibranchs from my LFS, has anyone had experience with them?

Are they hardy, or delicate,are they beneficial, being colorful, should they begotten and release their toxin is my tank screwed.

Just had to come to the experts of salt forums for thoughts.

Thanks all in advance

They are not hardy because they are almost always an obligate feeder, and providing food for them can be extremely difficult. Some are corals eaters, other eat a specific type of algae or other things. These creatures are best left in the ocean.
