Worm infestation... no
/28/2007
Hi crew,
I'm having a big problem with my LPS corals for the latest 2 weeks. My aquarium is 75 gallons, 5x39 T5 and 6 months old. My water param.s are
nh3,No3 zero, SG 35ppm, temp 79F, Ca 380
0, Alk 10
dKH, Mg 1300
50.
In the last 2 weeks, on the hammer and torch coral some white worm appeared as you can see in this picture

<They are mesenterial filaments. Btw, nice photo!>
Last week I bought a Fungia and now I can see a few worm on it also. I manually removed the worms with 2 sticks, then 15
min. dips in Lugol's solution, but without success.
<Oooo... bad idea. These are not pests. They're part of the coral (external digestive "organs").>
I think that they are predatory Nudibranchs, but I did not found any quality picture on internet that will help ID those nasty creatures.
<They're not Nudibranchs.>
What other things I must try to save the corals ?
<Relax my friend, they are a normal/healthy part of the coral.>
Thanks,
Cristi
