Killer underwater spider or ...?

Thanks for the replies!!
Cover them with glue as in cover the rock with glue? Are they really stuck in there enough to need to grind them?

Grind them as in break up their calcareous shell so that they die. I use a screw driver or a pair of wire snippers or a spade bit drill bit. By glueing I think most people mean they just inject a spot of crazy glue into the end of the vermatids tube.

That would work, possibly even better.

I use frag glue though, the stuff you use to affix frags to your rock work.

I've also had success with Kalk paste.

Shoot I didn't know you had to glue the whole thing to stop em. Little buggers!

Always fun when they come up through the middle of a coral or the coral grows around them.

If you follow their "web" you will find the snails tube.

Cover the entire tube, top to bottom.

You can try just covering the top, but then they often reappear a few days later.
