presston Posted August 19, 2003 Share Posted August 19, 2003 Hi everyone.....this morning my lights came on in the tank and this little creature was swimming 100 MPH around in the tank....I'm surprised I caught it and its currently in an observation bucket.....Any ideas what it is?.....At first i thought it was my Goby since it hasn't been visible for 3 weeks, but its definately not the Goby.....

SaltyDawg Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 It is some sort of worm coming out of its larve ( cacoon) stage. seriously. I had a couple of them inmy 5.5 when it was up and running. When it fully emerges it will look like its body is made up of hundreds of tiny vertabret and its head wil have two beedy little black eyes with tiny pinchers. Toss all you find imediatly! I found mine eating on my toadstool all the time and finaly go tthem out. Link to comment
jdsabin1 Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 Go to Reef Central and post. I am extremely curious now to know what this little monster is. Link to comment
Acoustic Posted August 22, 2003 Share Posted August 22, 2003 I am 100% positive it is a polychaete worm. The particular species is unknown. I will get more info for you soon. Link to comment
