Often times when they sense danger, the worm retracts deep into the base. You need to destroy the base of the vermetid, rather than clip off the tube. If not, it'll just grow back.So what would happen if I clip off these little **s and let them float? Will they die off? Or will they reattach somewhere else?
Dip won't work 100%. Clipping them must include the entire curly base or you're just clipping a tube that'll regrow. I would remove from the tank completely but honestly, its REALLY hard to get all of them (most are on the bottoms of rocks out of sight, some get their overflows and plumbing infested with them too).
Are you sure those aren’t fan worms? I haven’t found that dip kills vermited snails and we dip everything. I suppose if you can see the shell breaking and dipping might do the trick. Though I would never buy a piece that I saw a vermited onLiterally just seen some of these on 2 empty hermit crab shells I got yesterday. Just pulled em out the tank now. I did dip them. But I seen red little hairs coming out of one. And I did kill some worms with the first dip.
