You know you have a big tank if?
You find this 7ft. monster in your tank eating your lovely corals!
Awesome tank by the way, check out his system!

I don't know though man with that big of a system and all that money invested you would think he would want a larger viewing area. Just my feelings though, but then again I don't have 20 grand laying to build a tank like this or a wife that would let me spend that much on a tank. LOL

Yeah, they dont discriminate to tank size and they are VERY wary of light, red light or not. I found a 30" in my 46 last year. He was eating shrooms, crabs and snails. I would see him for just fractions of a second when i first hit the tank with the red light and i finally figured out how big he was by taking flash picture shots in the dark where i would see him at the same time every night. I watched him go into a big rock and dissassembled the tank to get him.

Those woms are tricky because If you pull em out of the rock, and he breaks, and a little piece of him is still in the rock/ pipe, then that little piece can regenerate into a whole new worm.

Or, you could carry it with you to the LFS and when that creepy guy jumps in front of you to take the prime peices of Tonga you reserved you can drop it in the bucket as he walks out......now that wouldnt be nice!

does anybody know what they look like when they are smaller? I have some worms in my tank that I would think are great sand sifters but, they don't like light  They seem to have a mouth within a mouth. or put it this way. A sleave with a mouth that moves back and forth inside? |
