Loading ...You see, I have a dilemma. Here I am standing next to a bowl with this little unsuspected soft coral killer. A part of me thinks, “Hey, just put it in the refugium. There is no soft corals for it to eat!”. But then what will it eat once I put it there? Will it just go about its business without any bother to my system? Will it just stay in the refugium? It is really small and slippery, so who knows if it will stay put. But its hard to kill something so soft and innocent looking.
But in a flash, it occurred to me that I had forgotten something important. About a year ago, I once had these zoas:
And these zoas are as rare as an albino elephant. Yes, that rare. Unfortunately, our soft and innocent looking Eunicid worm dined out well that night. In fact, the entire 100 or so polyp colony was devoured by our little friend. So thinking about that moment in time made me reconsider leaving this worm in the system altogether. In fact, it will be swimming with our daily Toronto sewage.
Take that, you ungrateful worm!
For those who encounter this worm, do whats best for it.. let it free, down the drain. Its well suited for it!
