Gross - cleaning skimmer cup
 
I think the grossest part of this hobby is cleaning the skimmer cup...seriously nasty! Anyone else?

It makes a great guacamole

Lifting up a rock to see a writhing mass of bristle worms bothers me more.

I've seen a couple bristle worms moving about...my cleaner shrimp bug me too, like spiders, one bit me...ahh well.

With your fingers?? Ewwww...lol

Think of it this way.... The nastier it is, the better your skimmer is working :wink:.... And that's a good thing

Nope, I don't mind since I look at it as that's nastiness that is no longer in my tank:wink:

I agree with the bristleworms comment. Don't have many left, which is fine with me.

Skimmer goo doesn't bother me.

Dead rotting turbo snail!?!? Big time gross.
