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?...)

I made sure to get all of it out, and after that i flushed the rock with fresh water, just to be on the safe side.
I like this worm as well but i like my corals to stay alive.
And we thought that crabs and mantis were bad, compare to this thing it not so bad anymore is it?

I'm thinking I may have the same little #$%*&# in my tank, but have not seen it. I've been watching the last two nights with a red light, but haven't spotted it. Did yours seem to be active shortly after lights out or early in the morning?

yes, about two hours after lights off; that is how we noticed it but, it was so sensitive that when my wife said: there, quick cut with the scissors!" it retreated fast, almost like it felt the thoughts ! (We were in a dark room a foot away from the tank !,telepathic?) And it would not show if red light is present…
I had a sump light on (opposite lighting) and because I have bare bottom I was able to see it !
