Need help, quick!

[mandarinlove]

There is a syllidae worm eating my coral at night. I watched him suck star polyps out of the mat. I could actually see the green piece of star polyp go down his worm body.

I need to act quick before it munches it all away. I'm assuming this is what has been eating my zoas as well!

ANY IDEAS!!


HELP!

GOT THE SYLLID WORM!!

I went in there with needle nose pliers at around 11:00PM tonight and its head was in the rock so it didn't see me and I grabbed it out of there.

I am so relieved!

I would thank you all for your ideas and suggestions, except... well....

No one answered!!

THANKS!!

nasty! Sorry no one answered your question, at 10PM its kind of a hit or miss that anyone is on to help, and its usually buried in the morning by other threads.
