The Medusa Worm is a fascinating marine invertebrate prized for its unique, flowing feeding tentacles and role as a natural sand cleaner. It thrives in a well-established saltwater aquarium with deep, fine substrate and stable water conditions. The tank should be free of overly aggressive tankmates, as the Medusa Worm can be sensitive and easily stressed. Feed small, meaty foods such as chopped Gamma shrimp or fish, which it captures with its delicate tentacles. Provide plenty of hiding space within the substrate to allow natural burrowing and reduce stress. With stable water quality, a peaceful environment, and appropriate feeding, the Medusa Worm becomes an intriguing and visually captivating addition to a reef or marine tank.

I like it, but basically a sea cucumber, at least in terms of toxicity if stressed and can nuke an entire tank.

Not happening in my house... Though I love all the benefits, the risks too high for me.
I agree. I had one in 1998 and it got caught in a powerhead and nuked my aquarium.
