Rita Sullivan Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 These are cute but wonder how good they are. They close up when frightened. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Just some type of filter-feeding worm....like a mini-featherduster. Nothing to worry about. Just part of the diversity we find in reefs. Link to comment
theANEMONEA Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 That's called a Coco Worm. It's a cool little duster worm that goes for 30 bucks when full grown. It's just a filter feeder, and yes that's only one of them; they have two "heads" that suck into their calcerous tube when frightened...nothing to worry about, and consider yourself lucky.

ebin Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Looks to be just a regular ol duster to me not a coco but hey the pic really isent the clearest so I could be wrong. Link to comment
Tigahboy Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I agree, ebin. And how come you never check your PMs?! hahah. hope all is well. peace. Link to comment
ViciousFishes Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 Exactly what Tigah said. Coco worms have a tube. Look at my avatar. You would have to be extremely lucky to get one hitchhiking on some liverock. You would be lucky just to find one in your lfs and really lucky to get it for $30 bucks. Link to comment
BKtomodachi Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 I have mini-dusters everywhere, part of my LR supplementation filtration. They are nice to have around. Link to comment
