Unwanted (fireworms, bristleworms, crabs, etc) Invertebrates Needed!!!!

[indoreefer]

I remember recently someone had a large bristleworm that they had caught. If it is still around I would be interested in it. Also any other unwanted invertebrates. I am a Zoology major at OU and I am currently enrolled in Invertebrate Biology, which has a collection that has to be put together. I would deeply appreciate any unwanted inverts.
TIA

I just relocated a stone crab two days ago. I don't think I can find him now. Too many places to hide in the front yard : )

 

[indoreefer]

Thanks anyway!

Well, I have a Thin Stripped hermit you can have. I was the one who caught the big bristleworm. He met a toiletry demise, sorry. I will try to catch others if you like. I also have some Aiptasia if you want I can cut a piece off.

Hey Indo! You're going to receive a PM from me in the future. I'm interested into going to OSU for zoology in the future and could use some pointers from someone going through it now.

 

[indoreefer]

MyMonkey that would be great, the hermit will work well and if you can catch another giant bristleworm that would be awesome.
TIA

Anytime, if I can help Travis.

I have some large unwanted aiptasia. Anemones are invertebrates

 

[indoreefer]

Travis if you can get an aiptasia off of the rock I would take it too. Yes it is an invertebrate!!!

When i first saw aptasia for sale i laughed.

indoreefer, if you want some inverts i have some science teacher catalogs, and there are online catalogs for science teachers that have common inverts for pretty good prices.

Sorry to go off topic but why would anyone not want bristleworms in their tanks?

 

[indoreefer]

I don't mind small bristleworms. But from what I understand they are not harmful. I have had more problems with crabs them bristleworms. If you go to www.ipsf.com they are actually selling them and say they benefit the tank.

I believe that bristleworms are good detrivores.

 

[MyMonkey]

Woohoo, I have one huge Aiptasia for you. How would you like to get the Hermit and whatever else I can find.

 

[indoreefer]

sent mymonkey a pm

 

[indoreefer]

Bump

 

[MyMonkey]

UPdate. Well, I returned from a few days in Tulsa at a conference. The hermit either molted and is hiding or has died. Darnet. That was the last of 4 I had. I will keep an eye out for him.

 

[indoreefer]

Anyone run across a really large bristleworm that they would want to get rid of?

 

[ReeferRyan]

I have bristleworms, but none are very large, and I have no idea how to catch them. I am about to eradicate a very aggresive emerald crab if you want it.

 

[MyMonkey]

Sorry INdo. I have not caught anymore large worms. My hermit seems to have passed on as well. I will keep an eye out for anything creepy crawly.
