Well it appears he calmed down a little. Hes not going crazy in the corner anymore. I cut power on 2 powerheads and put a black piece of paper on the corner of the tank. Im still going to test for stray voltage and get a grounding probe.

I have a 46gallon bow. My whole setup cost $1,100. That was just the tank, stand, filtration, live sand, PC lighting. Im probably around $2,000 now with everything else. Maybe a lil more.

For the past day my tang has been in the corner of my tank wiggling against the glass like crazy. I dunno if hes stressed out or what. Ive never had problems up until now. Looks like hes digging a trench in the sand. Can someone tell me what hes doing? He doesnt show any signs of disease. No...

Not the same worm. 2 different ones. Damm i got alot of hitchikers on that piece of LR. Got a few tiny feather dusters on it also. Should i just leave these things alone or should i try and rid of them? Problem is they are on a piece of LR with my mushrooms.

Dunno if its the same worm or not but the rock where its hiding i also noticed hair like things coming out and grabbing stuff off the sand. When i see the worm in the sand i gotta check and see if the hairs are coming out of the live rock. Not sure if its the same worm or not. I guess it could...

I cant tell if its in its tube cuz its kinda brown. Not translucent. Should i remove the crown and get rid of it?

Came home today and noticed my feather dusters crown laying the sand bed right next to its tube. No sign of the worm anywhere. Is it still in the tube? If so how will i know? Should i remove the crown or just leave it?

Once again i take it back. It looks like its about a foot long. Is this going to cause problems? Do i need to remove it?

I take that back. Its more like 5"-6" long. I hope this is ok. Anyone? I wish i could get a pic but it just doesnt come out.

ok closer inspection and it doesnt look anything like a bristle worm. Looks more like a peanut worm. It looks clear. I can see thing moving inside the body when it eats. The head is black and there little tentacles or something on its head. Its about 3" long cant really tell. I guess i dont need...

Just recently added some corals. Ive noticed some type of worm in between my front glass and sand bed. It has some red coloring in it but it doesnt have any spines like a bristle worm and doesnt appear to be segmented. None that i can see. Ive tried to get a pic but it just doesnt come out. I...

It was a bristle worm around 7 feet long and 3/4' in diameter which was living in his pvc piping. It filled the diameter of the pipe. Now thats big.
