Shrimp Eating My Coco Worm

[Eric55]

This morning I found my cleaner shrimp munching on one of the 2 heads of my new red coco worm. The shrimp had bitten the head off completely.

The other head of the worm looks fine and still looks beautiful.

Is the worm going to die?

Will the other head grow back?

Thanks for any advice you can share.

Is the worm out of the tube?
I had my coco bail out from its tube and my arrow crab got it thinking it was a bristleworm. I put it in a breeder in the display and it started to regrow its tube. I hope yours makes it too.

It might have shed its crown, check if the worm is still inside the tube, the crown should grow back.
