Thread: what is this?

  1. #1

    Default what is this?

    I woke up this morning, did my normal routine and decided to feed my corals which I hardly do anymore.... I noticed my temp dropped to 72 degrees, so it was time to turn on the house AC, which I didnt want to do cause I like the cold but my tanks dont, problem fixed..... So as I am feeding with a flash light to make sure all the acans get some mysis I noticed this hanging out from under the LR....

    then I continue to look around and this is under a piece of coral





    there is another one all inside of a nice piece of organ coral, which is almost all gone now....

    any clues?

    yeah just a brittle or serpent. By the way: have you considered tank heaters? Seems cheaper to pop a heater in the tank than heat the whole house lol

    Just saw a couple in my 38 last night, I just figured they were some some type of beneficial worm.
