There you go....I've kept those in my tanks for years. I enjoyed hand feeding them. I think I probably have several hundred of them now, but they are all really small. I miss my friend, Max. Max went with my live rock in my previous tank.

I never did learn how large Max was...but he was about the thickness of a pencil. He was vegetarian, btw.

No armor but very hard to touch, got it out with the thin screw drivers and tweezers my wife helped a lot (by holding flash light and holding her breath or continuously screaming!) LOL

Yuck...I don't like these posts. Make me have nightmares, but so did my brittle starfish. Yeck.

Holy crap! I have yet to see any of those come in with any shipments or show up in any of my past and present tanks. If my wife saw that I would be forced out of this hobby.

sweeeet. Im sorry, Im just fascinated by the little beasties. Are you sure you got it all out? Ive heard horror stories of the bits and pieces regenerating into smaller worms and getting right back at it in force like some kind of Greek myth (Im sure there was a myth like that... what was it?...)

If they all looked like yours untamed and were vegetarians, I think I would like having those things around in my tank as decoration. I love the way that the light refracts off the back.
