Actually to update on the status, I found 3 worm carcasses that night after I complain about the bobbit worm. They were all shriveled up and I can't tell if it is fire/bristle, or the evil bobbit worm. The CO2 method really works. I soaked the rock over 2 days in fresh water with CO2 just to make sure that the bobbit worm is still not hiding inside, but nothing else came out even after blasting with a hose.

But guess what? I found another 7cm long baby bobbit worm in the main tank the week after! This could be the worm that killed my blotchy anthias. Damned wriggly b*****ds!

do u always feed your fish with fresh food or pellets?

go with pellets for a wk then use the prawns bait method to catch the bobbit worm..

more effective using e lure.. its easier to invite them to come out themselves..

but then again blotchy anthias quite big size leh hw did it get kill ? must hv had some fish community prob ?
