rleon3003 Posted May 6, 2006 Share Posted May 6, 2006 i was taking a look inside my 55g and spotted an aiptasia!!! so i got out my STOP AIPTASIA pioson juice stuff and shut the pumps off. i squirted the aiptasia and left it there for about 20 min, with all the pumps off. i was looking around and in this one rock, i saw a small black with white spots worm kind of thing. i dont no wat it is but it would come out of its hole, only about 2 cm, and the head of it was kinda like a feather duster. the head would come out then everything would go back in the hole. but not like a scared movement but like a drinking the water movement. its whole tube worm thing would retract back into itself. idk how to explain but i took my camera out and took some pix. theyre not the best but i hope they help.
