3 foot Euncid worm captured!

[Capt_Cully]

Thanks to Tim from ABC reefs for help apprehending sea serpent.

Tear down

Worm in and under rock:

3 FEET RETRACTED!

I bet stretched out it could reach 4 to 5 feet

Dang! That thing is amazing!!!

Can that thing play football?? Sign that baby up to the Cuse!!! We can use him!

 

[chrisqueenz]

Wow! That's big

 

[Conesus_Kid]

Wow!

Do you have a positive ID on that bad boy? Is your coral munching caper solved?

BTW: The pictures make it look like it went rather smoothly. Personally, I was hoping for more shennanigans, tomfoolery and grabass.

Tim and I were quite uneasy about how everything came out of the tank. Re aquascaping was a snap. Tim said "that was so easy". Before he finished the sentence he knew we would be jinxed. Not sure what's gonna happen, but ready for anything.

The worm is headed for a giant jar of formalyn in Tim's basement. He's weird like that.

tim's believe it or not museum just got it's first exhibit.

[Capt_Cully]

Sadly, Tim has quite a few pickled curiosities in his basement already. Whatever, as long as that things outta my house!

 

[sedorusc]

Like in the movie "Independance Day".


"...or as we like to call it, the freak show."

It's Alive!!!

It's Alive!!!

Well I may be a little off but my broken footed business partner wants me to keep it alive. Thinking new mascot. Name suggestions? Maybe anyone who reaches through the liverock and doesn't get attached a la Flash Gordon, wins a prize.

I think this is a great idea. What a good PR move!
Awesome worm. I think you can put away the surveillance camera now, Cully.

how about naming the worm "spitzer"

 

[smm607]

Holy crap! I think i might have a nightmare involving that thing tonight

 

[psychofishy]

thats awesome... with all those horror stories going on on these forums i keep looking at my own tank, noticing tiny bristle worms, and thinking

"one day you'll be causing me so much trouble"...

My wife's pretty freaked out about those bastards too.....
