Psychosis Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Google "peanut worm" and see if that matches up. Oh, and never throw any thing away with out an ID. You have no idea how many beneficial reef critters get chucked because they look strange. If it was a peanut worm, that's something I'd go out of my way to add to my tank. Link to comment

brandon429 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 What you had sight unseen was a Eunice worm I bet ya Link to comment
metrokat Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Brandon, I think I have a eunice worm, it sort of looks like those spines a yellow cucumber has (except this one is clear/beige) attached to a tube. It is extremely tiny, smaller than those HH rock feather dusters. Should I leave it be or nuke it? Link to comment
brandon429 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Truly metro I would be amazed if you could catch it! I never could catch mine so it outgrew my tank in a few years but was still in there, your tank won't gain benefit from him but really I think he's too squirrelly Link to comment
metrokat Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 I've nuked one before Brandon, you underestimate my heels. Here's an old pic of the devil I killed: Link to comment
randythefishdude Posted March 17, 2012 Author Share Posted March 17, 2012 I've nuked one before Brandon, you underestimate my heels. Here's an old pic of the devil I killed: I DIDENT REALLY SEE ANY TENTICALS ON HIM LOOKED AROUND THE SOME SIZE .....I LOOKED UP PENUT WORM AND I SAW MOST ARE SMALL Link to comment
brandon429 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Ha! You are right even being able to photograph one is half the battle Wouldn't it be amazing if they were super sensitive to peroxide like fire worms, who knows... That's the beast suspected however. One of my reef videos shows a ten inch Eunice (in a gallon vase lol) I think his waste production played a role in me losing my first pico reef, hate em. Link to comment

iball1804 Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 Whatever it is, it gone. Also take off caps lock. It doesn't help. Link to comment
patback Posted March 17, 2012 Share Posted March 17, 2012 if I was dropped on the head as a child and never learned about sea cucmubers, I might. I threw out my sea cucumber after waiting so long for a reply here, and 5 minutes after I threw him out, kat answered me and said I could keep it. Noob mistake. Kat, your heels may be quick enough to get that Eunice, but weren't quick enough to save my sea cuke. ;P Link to comment
metrokat Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 PM me next time although you know who always knows answers? I think I even started a thread for it somewhere Alto Newman Brandon Lakshwadeep Bert Bollinger Decoz Link to comment
Reef Casa Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Wait, you threw it away? Take it out and take a pic! +1 YO WHY DIDN'T YOU PHOTOGRAPH IT! WHY ARE YOUR CAPS ALWAYS ON? Link to comment
animalmaster6 Posted March 18, 2012 Share Posted March 18, 2012 Are you sure it's not a sea cucumber? Next time definitely take a pic before throwing it Even better, don't throw it out. Get a clear tub, container, etc. and wait to see if it is beneficial or not. Also maybe somebody would be interested in it. You never know! Link to comment
