Default How would you like to find this in your tank?

Barry the 4 foot worm.

Ugly. I would have found him before he reached that length, and devestated so many fish/corals. But my aquarium is a lot smaller than theirs.

I think if I had that in my tank I would shut it down and call it a day... I can't believe I stick my hands in there.

i'd come over and wrestle it out of your tank. Someone would have too hold my feet though..

the customer comes first


if i found that in my tank, i'd probably see if it'd eat a waffle, and if not i'd just make it into a belt.

I did have one 36" long in my tank , got rid of it few monh ago.
It ate everything ! small fish all types of corals LPS, softies, mushrooms rics you name it .
Very nasty thing. I think this is the worst hitch hiker in aquarium you can get.
Much worse then mantis shrimp. imo.

Me too. All of my small fishes and all of my zoas and ricordeas. I have now gotten rid of the worm. Now I can restock. Now actively looking for zoas, ricordeas, and coral gobies and whatnot. If after I restock and the corals and small gobies don't get eaten, I'm pretty sure I have found the culprit.

Here's a worm eating a stunned feeder fish (which I know you've seen and posted before). Talk about role reversal.
