javisaman Posted December 6, 2008 Share Posted December 6, 2008 A couple of weeks ago I noticed the polyp extension on my goniopora dropped significantly. I assumed that I was just another one of the unlucky yet common goniopora keepers. I today I saw what looked like a worm moving around the base of the goniopora. It definitely is not a bristleworm (I've seen those). Its coloration is exactly like the base of the goniopora (green/white) and difficult to spot. It is no thicker than a millimeter and 3" long. It is too soon to say if the goniopora benefited from its removal (freshwater/iodine dip) Here is a picture Any idea what it could be? I think its been hanging around the gonipora for some time too, because I did notice something a while ago but I thought it was just the base tissue of the gonipora curled up. Link to comment
javisaman Posted December 9, 2008 Author Share Posted December 9, 2008 Hmm my gonipora is recovering nicely! This worm must be a pest Link to comment
