Worm for sale!

[ShaunW]

I found this really cute worm in my tank that I grew from a small little guy over the course of 8 years.

I am offering it up for auction to a good and responsible home. This guy is three feet long, and its name is "Gusanito" (which is little worm in Spanish).

So bid away and may the richest Manhattanreefer win, .

Oh, I forgot to mention, Gusanito likes fresh meat and likes to eat any of the following:

Small fish (he just loves gobies)
Shrimp (cleaner shrimp are his favorite)
Soft corals that taste good (he says that toadstools and rare zoanthids that are blue are prefered)
Ricordea yumas

but he would settle for a nibble on a Homosapien finger if none of the above are available.

no, here's a quote from Dr. Rons article, he has a Gus in his own tank,

"They will extend from rocks to feed and appear to be mostly scavengers or detritivores. However, little is known about their diets in nature, and if any are found in aquaria, they may well be able to eat small fish or shrimp. On the other hand, there is no hard data that they do so."

no fish or inverts ever went missing from shauns tank

Will Gus get along with turtle? How about put it into a turtle tank? :scratchch

Gusanito likes turtles, is it bite size?
