No, I'm pretty sure we're in for a bug hunt

And I thought my 3" fireworms were big!

so funny as I saw this post today and then I just found one in my pico tank. Of course he is alot smaller but has the little black tentacles in the front and is a little lighter in color but I am sure it is the same. I was able to get him out and now wondering what I should do with it. I am sure it will come to a demise real quick but still.

 

[firethefish]

I hear they taste like chicken

 

[lionbacker54]

ugh. i tend to like gross things but that is just too much.

So you think your worm is big?

Then you should check out what some guy just pulled out of his tank in Europe! Its in the 'other invertebrates' forum:smokin:

 

[suta4242]

Sorry - brain fade; we're already in that forum...

Thats insanity, I would probaly destroy my sump trying to kill him through the glass because I would be to scared to stick my hand in the water.:hammer: :blown: I hope you get him

 

[Sk8r]

eunicid...probably just fine in the sump. He's a good detrivore, and doing no harm where he is.

 

[tylerdj]

Here is a website I just found http://oregonreef.com/sub_worm.htm This makes me ponder whether or not I should check my sump tonight :strange:

update on kraken, he is still in my fuge and growing fast, I feed him jumbo mysis & krill every couple of days, he has the biggest appetite in the tank! he has also made his own tunnel in the coner of the tank, which he never leaves since I started feeding him!
I just caught a small lightening fast red & white worm out of my display, and I am hoping it is not babys of kraken!
will post pics soon!

 

[mouserusker]

I'm glad you decided to keep him.
Be careful, though: I imagine that when this worm gets big/adventurous enough, he may be able to climb up the drain and into the main tank.
Let us know when stuff in the DT starts to mysteriously disappear...

Still, a very cool worm.

 

[the droob]

WOW that thing is really cool,definatley in a species tank and watch him grow

 

[nikesb4l]

wow that info on the 7footer is awesome. you should keep it.
