Smart Bristle Worm
 
These traps are useless. They're too small to catch bristle worms. I thought I had this worm caught but even as it got close to the bait, most of its body was still outside the trap. It simply backed out of the trap once it realized that it was a trap. :)

why are you trying to catch it?

Aquattro 01-23-2003 11:07 PM

I was also curious about that. Did you catch it being a bad worm?

Got too many of them. Most are small but this one is too big for my liking. Read about people getting cut or bitten by them when they move their liverock around.

What eats them?

Aquattro 01-24-2003 03:12 AM

Sam, if you do catch it, bring it to the meeting. I'll give it a home.

Samw 01-24-2003 05:51 AM

You got it Brad. Its a good thing you told me that you wanted it alive! :) I had a new plan to catching it quick which involves an algae scraper but then I wouldn't be able to give it to ya in one piece. :) Now I need a non-lethal strategy.

Get a new nylon stocking. Put in some food. Lay under a rock.
