Cocoworm and water changes

[ToshAlexandra]

Any one have their coco worm out of water during water change? Where I want to put it it'd probably be sitting in the air for about five minutes when i do a water change, will this hurt it? Thanks!

Not sure why you'd take it out of the tank with no water? If it has to come out why don't you put it in a bag of water?

I think its more along the lines of wanting to place the coco worm in a spot in the aquarium that will be exposed to air when doing a water change . And to answer the ? Im not sure, but I do not like to leave anything exposed to air.

My anemone likes my over flow and he's exposed every few days for ten to fifteen mins to the air , he looks like slime running down my wall :p he deflats but it happy a hour later or so . But yours is a filter feeder and I wouldn't want to expose the soft thin sensitive filters to the air at all . They'd get damaged

lol yes while doing a waterchange, didn't want to take it out for dinner or anything!

Yah I've got sps, lps and nems exposed during water changes, just didn't know what a cocoworm could handle.
