I've been trying to catch this 6" bristle worm in my tank for the past 2 months and he is very evasive. As I have tried many nights, I watched him slowly emerge from a rock last night and waited 15 mins to try to grab him with tongs while using a flashlight. My wife yelled at me to go to sleep already so I gave up.
I woke up this morning to find that my elegance coral had CAUGHT HIM AND WAS DEVOURING HIM! And almost done as well! I was wondering if it's dangerous for the elegance to eat him with his toxins or not. But I decided it would be more injurious to the elegance if I tried to pull/retract the prey from its mouth. Plus the meal looks like it's essentially almost over anyway.
I was growing to despise this coral because she kills a trochus snail about once or twice a week on average. Then she goes and does this...and TOTALLY REDEEMS HERSELF.
