Scary...

In the early 90's I was growing Caulerpa paspaloides commercially. The guy I was working with started telling me this story about these bristle worms that would swim up from the bottom and then burrow into you and go for your heart. He's telling me this while I have both arms in the tank... you can guess what happened next. After the halides stopped hissing from water hitting them and he stopped laughing I figured out it was all a big joke. Maybe he was ahead of his time for the mutant bristleworms???

Hello

Sounds like those stories of people eating sashimi and worms are found in brain.

Not just Sashimi but undercooked pork as well.

I read the story online and I have started a 3g picotope in which the pods are rampant due to no fish. Any small invert that eats them? I was thinking of adding some hungry lps. I have a 3 head candycane that might eat a couple..
