Spaghetti worms

[silent_circle]

Anyone have these? What is the best way to control it?

A friend's tank is littered with these worms

From my experience they're harmless. Tell your buddy to feed less and they'll deminish naturally. I have a sand sifting star fish who almost always would be eating these worms.

The tank is a nano. They seem harmless but look so ugly in the tank. A star fish might be too big for the tank. Anything else that might eat it?

my yellow coris wrasse took care of mine. I agree harmless but ugly

I have them in my 2 small tanks. Feeding less will lower the population. Sometimes I just get in there and remove some with hemostats. I feed heavy so I don't have a choice and too small to add a wrasse.

They may be harmless but they irritate certain corals in my experience, especially zoas and palys.

I believe that arrow crabs will eat worms. You might be able to find a small one.
