Hey all,
My main tank is just finishing a cycle, so yucky, but I just got my TBS live rock that had a couple of hitchhiking nudibranches. I decided to try to feed them and the first thing they ate was a "tulip" anemone. They seem to like their food supply so well they have decided to breed and lay eggs. I'm going to try other pest anemones soon, namely aiptasia species, but pretty unusual find and I thought I would share the pictures:
One eating, other investigating:

snuggling to use a PG term :)

A fat and happy nudibranch:
