Spionid Worm

[glitzyone]

I am thinking My tank may have to many of the Spionid Worm
and they may be Irritating my soft coral and keeping them closed. So what will eat Spionid Worm?

what led you to think that you had them? have you seen them? which soft corals are staying closed?

If you want to kill them glue over the opening.

I think it is them- I see them all over and they use the sand to make a tunnel and move all around they are white or clear long and stringer.. I have a rock of palys and some zoas. I diped all on saturday. Because they have been closed since wednesday. The only thing I saw come out was a bristle worm, some kind of pod and one tiny snail. They still have not opened. The only other thing maybe could be the hawk fish. Just one of these strange episodes with my tank.

Did the one tiny snail look like the one on the left???

If so, that is a sundial snail...a.k.a. zoanthid eater.

Sundials are bad news ... when extend from the shell they have a cone shape .... Had some similar problems recently where I didnt dip one of my zoos and sundials plus a few nudibranchs that I found ended that colony
