    This colt coral has been sucking we have had it for about 2 months. Finally moved it to the Quarantine tank thought it was just a fungus last night. I put it under strong water flow went and did a couple of things came back and it was gone. TILL TONIGHT!!!!! I pulled The white thing off with tweezers.IT LOOKED LIKE IT WAS EATING THE COLT

    Def. looks like a nudi/slug etc.

    I'd get rid of it and hope there aren't more.

    That is the eaxct same thing that i had in my tank, but i had about 7-8 of them.. not sure what kind they are but im preety sure they are a type of nudibranch , and they love soft corals. I threw my coral with all of them out, and hope there are none that i have missed!!

    Cheers,

    It really is too bad that almost all nudibranches are either not reef safe, or simply die eventually.
