Re: star fish

Listen to Alexander.
Those little brittle stars are a great addition to your tank.As are 99.9% of the worms you'll find.

Re: star fish

It takes time to make a new reefer believe in worms yote. Its funny my lfs actually sells a bristleworm trap. Only way I can ever justify taking one out is if its over a foot long.

Re: star fish

my LFS thinks they are worms from hell and they call me everytime they catch one! lucky me eh! only thing is that the worm never makes it to the bottom of the tank, triggers seem to love bristle worms!

Unless of course I happen to catch it munching on a coral.

Re: star fish

yeah i have only pulled one worm out in the entire time i have had my tank. it was about 13 inches long and it was when i was moving my tank to a new house. i figured i would get rid of it since it would be harder later on if it did become a problem. other than that i love seeing worms doing their dirty work in my tank.
