SRC Member jsoon Posted August 26, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted August 26, 2003 When I try to replace my worm to another location, I accidentally stripped it shelf off and it is now ######. I can't stuff it back into it previous shelf so what so I do ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Achilles Tang Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 lol!! Are you talking a tubeworm?? Yes, it's possible to slip the worm back into its tube... Dun worry, they are capable of building a replacement tube body but they prefer to feed on mud instead of sand to process their homes.

FuEl Posted August 26, 2003 Share Posted August 26, 2003 Cover the body with debri or fine sand (not the crown). It will normally make a new tubing for itself. Nothing to worry about.

SRC Member jsoon Posted August 27, 2003 Author SRC Member Share Posted August 27, 2003 Hi, The tubeworm is now embedded into one of the small pocket of my LR. Not sure how am I going to dig it out. Anyway, I will try to put some Grade 0 Sand or debris on its body. BTW, what can I feed it ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SRC Member Matt06 Posted August 27, 2003 SRC Member Share Posted August 27, 2003 It is ok, as long as they can find one confortable place and rebuild their "casing", you must take note: Watch out for any fishes or other inhabitants as they might attack it...
