Berghia Nudibranches

I bought (4) 1/2" to 3/4" Berghia a couple weeks ago. After acclimating I placed them in my tank (39 gallon display, 20 gallon fuge/sump). They crawled into the nearest holes and I've seen no sign of them or of reduced aptasia. Has anyone had experience with Berghia? What is the time table for seeing results with aptasia reduction. My fear is they ran into one of my large bristleworms and got eaten.
 
i bought a few peppermint shrimp a while back and that took care of my aptasia in about 2 weeks...granted i only had a very small population but u may want to try a few peps...i'm not sure if they will go after the nudi's now or not but they are a pretty cheap and simple solution. As far as the nudi's...dunno.
 
Bergi's go in the smaller holes first and eat the aipistia in the unforseen spots before finishing up on the larger ones you can see on the outside of the rocks. Sounds like normal behavior to me... I wouldn't worry too much...
