Worm for sale!

[Josh]

Gusanito is so cute! I can't wait to see a bunch of Gusanito-itos.

 

[jhale]

well you never saw him for eight years!

I'm sure he won't mind Ebby's tank for now.

At least you know the bottom will always be clean

 

[NYPDFrogman]

my mystery wrasse would eat him in a heart beat!
I had one, small in my tank about 6" long took him a whole 45 seconds to pull him from a hole and chomp him

he's eaten every coral crab and havent seen my smallest emerald crab either

 

[Reefer420]

I like your idea of 'cute'! I wonder how much waste something that large gives off??? Might be a lot of bioload to add to a reef- pretty darn cool though

 

[jhale]

frank that would be one large meal for the wrasse.

solbby's gf sugested we put him on the grill at the next bbq :bigeyes2:

should we save you a piece

no thats OK they are pretty common even in our local water, fluke, flounder and stripers love them.


seriously my mystery wrasse is definitly a worm eater he's about 4" long when his mouth opens it huge almost like a fresh water snake head.
I saw him eat a worm twice his length. he pulled it from a whole chomped it a draged the rest to his spot and finished it. I wish i had my video camera

 

[ShaunW]

Maybe we should introduce Gus and your wrasse in front of a video camera!

 

[jhale]

that's mean, gus is not trying to hurt anyone

 

[Chiefmcfuz]

Not yet at least!

[tunicata]

I get creeped out by the 3-4" ones in my tank...they look hellbent...
