Spaghetti/Hair Worms
 

I found a few of these little buggers in my zoos, are they bad? they seem to be interested in the zoo's but they dont seem to be upsetting them.. The rock they all seem to be on is the size of a foot ball, should I dip it? or are they ok?

Just thought I'd ask! :)

In your zoas or under?

Spagetti worms tend to like the sand. I had some once and they always came out when mysis hit the water.

Also could be tube worm. Sometimes they hide in zoas and send out a little whitish sweeper for food.

Pic?

I cant get a decent pic lol but I google spaghetti/hair worm and thats how it looks, some are green some are translucent. I got one out, it was under a frag, then I notice there were more lol. Are they bad? I will try to get a pic

They are harmless. Scavengers.

I had a huge colony. Don't over feed the tank. More nutrients will foster growth. Just like bristle worms.

well I hope they are harmles lol. Anyways I couldnt get a picture, but I got a video that is shotty at best, but hopefully you can see what I am looking at in my green zoos, p.s. anyone know exactly what kind of zoos these are? I thought maybe green apple?

looks like brittle starfish legs to me, they're harmless scavengers, won't hurt ur zoos or anything else

tough to tell. Either way your safe :mrgreen:
