Smann Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Hopefully not bad worms, I've Google and just get the usual feather duster info, which these are, some look like they have died off others have the feathers sticking out. Best pic I could get, all the white lines, this is dry rock so it came in on some other rock pieces I put in the tank. So far they are only on this rock. I've noticed they've really taken off, like all the other life in my tank since I've been "fish less" for a few weeks. I have pods, mysis shrimp going crazy, my cleaner shrimp are constantly cruising the rock and have developed serious bellies along with the crabs having a heyday. This is a totally different environment to sit and watch the tank with no fish not to mention how clean it is Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nyles Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 Looks good, just feather dusters. Wrasses will pick at them but they will typically learn to pull in when the wrasses come out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do wrasses eat them???[/quote'] If I remember right didnt you have a Queen Angel at one time? They have been known to eat them. As well as almost any butterfly fitch. Dont think a wrasse would bother them, mine doesnt at least. Who knows though, my wrasse has crazy mood swings and may someday find them tasty. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think you have been to our house yet, but we always have at least 3-5 tanks up at a time... currently down to 3, soon be 4 again!

Nyles Posted December 21, 2010 Share Posted December 21, 2010 My coris wrasse was not interested but my malinarius wrasse would attack anything that moved. Never know but they are hunters by nature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jgf86123 Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 We used to watch our first melanarus devour bristle worms like they were candy, he'd snag up the big ones, 6+ inches long at least, an bite em in half, eat one side an then eat the other, it was kinda cool, never thought they'd eat the bristle worms, but it was a very nice surprise.

Mandinga Posted December 22, 2010 Share Posted December 22, 2010 i'd be more concerned about that brown, fast growing pom pom stuff.... just trimmed mine yesterday and threw away at least 3 lbs of it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
