Coco worms
Does anyone here keep any? and if you do, do you spot feed it separately from the rest of the tank, or just let it scoop whatever you feed the tank from the water?

Do you have a pic of a coco worm? I'm not familiar with these, what do they do?

Thank you, basically its a huge feather duster. I have been told they need to be fed phytoplankton, and or liquid organic foods. I am wondering if its really necessary is all. |

I just goggled it's info and it said that they are expensive, and have a short life span (2 years or less). I didn't see anything about feeding, but I'm sure someone around here will help you with that!!!

I have had mine for close to a year now without supplemental feedings. They do drop their heads once in a while though, IME, but it always grows them back. They do form a calcerous tube though so that may be a consideration.
