A few months back I bought a small medusa worm, that came from the carribean, and it seems to feed on the diatoms, algae, and detritus in my tank, or at least it is "swabbing" its feeders over the algae and diatoms and detritus. Well, for about 2 weeks I have been seeing a bunch of tiny ones. I think there are at least 20 or so new ones. They are all tiny though, but look exactly like the large medusa. Today ! finally saw my medusa worm again, and it has at least tripled in size.
The small medusa worms couldn't have come in on my live rock, since all of my rock I made myself, and the only true LR that I have came from the pacific, and I am pretty sure that these are the same medusa worms as the big one, but I am not willing to cut one open and send it off to find out
.
So my question is, "Do you think that these new medusa worms are offspring of the big one, or that maybe the large one was damaged, and the young ones generated from it?"
Thanx!
