Does anyone want a giant polychaete worm? About 6-1/2 FT long....!

I know this is probably not allowed but its worth it if the mods would be so kind. Here is my thread on another site documenting my adventure catching him. If not allowed please delete. I've been told it is one of the most amusing threads on there. Glad everyone else has fun with it because I did not!

That is just creepy! Yuck!

6 feet is not that big. Many more in people's tanks they don't even know about. Congrates on getting it. One of the happiest reefing days in 30 years the day I caught mine.

Oh and for you doubting Thomas's:

Before he hit a jar of formaldehyde he went into a rock 3 inches by 2 inches. Yes, be afraid, very afraid!!!

Now I'm scared! Is there anyway one can prevent such a creature from living and growing in one's reef tank? By adding a wrasse or something?

Thanks for the link, great read. Can't believe you actually used the broken glass and that it lived through it!

Ha I thought only cockroaches would survive the end of the world but these things are going to he around for a long time after us!
