Expert only correct?

 

[cromag27]

I would suggest so. they are extremely delicate and their skin can be punctured by urchin spines, or anything else sharp. It's also easy to break them in half if you're not careful when handling/moving them. they're also a cucumber so I would assume they have the possibility of fouling your tank should it die.

Medusa worm have a symbiotic relationship with the emperor shrimp, which can be difficult to find and expensive.

Stunning coloration on that one. How long have you had it for?

 

[cromag27]

I had it for a couple years before I sold it. it grew from 6" to almost 24" extended.

I see these all the time diving, they're uber gross when you see a whole bunch of them under your belly.
