Worm ID

Drock169 · #1 02-01-2008, 06:55 AM

Any one able to ID this. Its some sort of nocturnal worm with swims with an undulating motion ( i think thats the word i'm looking for). they range for a cm to this one being the largest at about an inch.

I'm trying to figure out what is eating my soft corals. I was thinking maybe it was a nudi (because of the white marks that are left when the coral was eaten) but I have no idea. I'm almost tempted to give all of my LR a dip in Lugol's.

Any help is appreciated

I have one of those! Or at least I used to ....haven't seen it in a while. Comes out and swims around madly for a while and dissapears....haven't noticed any eaten portions on any of my corals tho. If you're quick he's totally catchable (I caught mine to take a look at it) rather than dipping all your LR....sorry I can't help with a further ID than that though.
