Coco worm don't come out

[guppy]

Hi , got a red Coco worm in the tank for a month, it came out when first introduced

to the tank but after a few days it retracted inside the tube and seldom appear. Only recently i happens to notice that it will appear when all the lights are off in the nite. Any idea? Thanks.

At least it is still alive. They are shy creatures sensitive to movement and disturbances but they gradually acclimatise to the new environment.

Do you have a lot of fast moving fish?

I've coco worms doing well in tanks lit with the brightest MH.
