New Jersey , Jersey shore
I see pinkish wormlike feelers coming out of one of my rocks
Should I worry about this worm and try to remove it?
I read a spagetti worm could get really big...
It's not near my sand bed , its on a rock I stacked way at the top of the tank
It's Creepy looking
Help please , Thanks
 
You won't be able to kill them all. But what I do is put one bicolor dotty back fish in the tank. It is known as worm killers. Worms mostly are good, I just don't wanna see too many of them.

Make sure you do some research on the fish if you gonna use it.
 
Will the dotty back eat feather dusters

Is a feather duster considered a worm?
I like those . Thats a good idea to get the fish who will eat the spagetti ... as long as it wont eat everything else.
 
It is unnecessary, if not somewhat undesirable, to get rid of such worms. They are actually beneficial. I don't think you'll get an overpopulation of spaghetti worms (terebellids, that is).
 
Should I move it to the bottom

Should I try to place that rock with the worm on the bottom of the tank for cleaning up the sand , now its at the very top of my stacked rocks near the water surface.
 
No. I don't know of anything that can touch a feather duster. They are just too darn quick.
