String worms?
I notice when I turn my lights on in the AM.. there are these really stringy-fuzz like things in my tank. They are pretty long.. and remind me of a very thin, long piece of fuzzy string.
Does this sound like some type of worm to you all? They are a big eye sore, thankfully I do not USUALLY see them during the day. Weird little creatures (if they even are creatures..) |
Are they reddish? They could be spaghetti worms. They're a harmless scavenger.

No , they are more like a grey/whiteish colour, actually.

They're probably digitate hydroids. I have no idea whether they're good or bad. I'm hoping for the former as I have about a billion in my tank :confused:

Yup, that's them! Thanks Christy. (thanks for the link as well)
Hmm.... let's uhh, hope that they are not bad. :lol: *edit* Quoted from Melevsreef.com Quote:

I have a bunch of those as well.
I find them rather neat looking and haven't done any harm so far. |
Alrighty.. good stuff. At least I'm not the only one with them. Just was getting curious as to what they were.. more and more keep poppin' up! :wink:
|
they can be cool to watch, i had a few but havent seen them for awhile.
|
They're part of what makes Live Rock "Live."

Don't most, or all, hydroids sting? That can't be good.
