Who cares about them?

They are super hardy. I have never fed them anything special. It is suppose to eat small water residue of food that your fish left over...

If you really worry, can feed liquid plankton, but I dun think necessary.

Health is determine by its crown but is also very subjective. My fan die bcos of the stupid hermiit crap rip it up and eat it.

Equipment:

30G Corner Tank with 10G Sump, 2 x 24W artinic T5, 1 x 24W 10K, 1x 24W 20K, 3" Grade 0 sand & Live rocks, Activated Carbon, Bio-home, 2 x Seio M620, Hailea 1/2HP Chiller, Redsea Pro Skimmer

Live Stock:

Turbo Snail x 1, Green Mandarin Dragonet X 2, Blue Tang X 2, True percular x 2, 1 x Algae Bleenie, Clarke clown x 2

Reef:

1 x 2" Blue maxima, Red/Brown/Purple Mushroom (Discosoma), Pink Ricordea yuma, A little colony Brown/Green common Zoanthus, Red/Pink/Green US Zoanthus, Eagle-eye Zoathus, 14 Branch Goniopora Pandoraensis, 1 Starburst Polyps, 3 + 2 Branch Frogspawn, 4 Blasto, palythoa, Cheato

RIPs (Since June 2005):

1. Sabae clown (KO by Clarke clown) 2. 1 branch melted frogspawn 4 branch 3. Golden maxima (Ripe the base off rock by me) 4. Algae Bleenie x 2 (Starvation) 5. Blue Maxima x 1, 2 x Maxima, 1 x frogspawn, rics (Overtemp...)

Old 30G Corner Tank.

haha well said..

they feed on phytoplankton off the water column so direct feeding is not required..

they are cant tolerate copper based medications and please keep them away from hermit crabs...

my poor fan died too bcos of a nasty hermit :angry:

their health can be monitored by looking at their crown..

if the crown remains retracted then something must be seriouslly wrong..

eg.harrasement,bad water parameters

worst comes to worst..the worm would abandon its home and find "greener grass"

and eventually die off if stress of it still occurs

How much to feed? My little fishies seem to like the

phytoplankton too. :)

brine shrimps a little too big for fan worm right ???
