Morning OUCH.

[Reefer1978]

Having a fun morning today. Picked up a rock with some mushrooms on it, on the underside there's another foot - woot, nice, have a baby. Poke it a few times with a finger just to make sure it's alive (or to confirm it's a foot). Alive - YEP. Foot - NOPE. Bristle Worm.

Fight fire with fire. Kill it. With fire.

Try it and report back... we need multiple reports to get a conclusive answer. :)

I'll just wait for someone else to report on the touching of the bristleworm…. Thanks for getting me the answer!

Could have been worse lol.
I keep my reef tank in my office. I was waiting in an attorney to do discovery response for a lawsuit. Was dressed nice and clean. Attorney called said she would be 20 min late. I thought “great I’ll clean my skimmer and work in the tank for a few min”

long story short, I dumped skimmate all down the front of my dress shirt. Needless to say, I looked like the exorcist after the throw up scene and smelled like crap mixed with ocean.

But I like my tank more then the lawsuit so I was secretly happy the Attourneys was more interested in what happened to me then the actual case lol.

I propose a test.
For science!
Also, not it.
