that is one big bristle worm and isnt that a serpent star? either way who won the fight?

 

[meowzer]

YEAH....WHO WON?????

 

[spanko]

You could be right as the identification on the star may be wrong. If it is correct the common name of the start is a Ruby Brittle star.
Don't know who won, that is the only flic I have seen.

If I were to put my money down I'd say the star looked to be the winner there.

if it was my tank.....i would have grabbed that worm with my grabbers and either moved it, or tossed it.. think that star fish is a bit more worth it then the worm.....but then again thats me....

 

[tangs rule]

I'm thinking over time, the bristle worm got eaten......typically you dont see things extract bristleworms out of rock unless they have a plan for what to do with it once they get it out.....
Great vid - thanks for posting!
