Just out of curiosity... Let's say you set up a small Black Sea aquarium for yourself... with fish and shrimp... three months go by, and suddenly you find this there... What would you do with it???

I bred!

Yeah, I read that they are very tasty and healthy... Does anyone know how??? Just throw it back into the aquarium and let it continue in that ecosystem? Or is it better to have some special conditions?

Read it - people have them growing up to a meter long and can't catch them without taking apart the aquarium. Meanwhile, these little worms eat corals at night. P.S. I would throw it away. Although it might be useful. I have a few similar ones living in my tank.

If it's just shrimp and caviar, then release them into the aquarium. If it's not one of those that will eat it, then the worm will be beneficial. It lives in the sand and will clean the substrate of all organic matter. I don't know what "akvalokho" is writing, but I catch fish with such worms, and my fish in the marine aquarium "chew on them for breakfast." And your fish in the marine aquarium, do they shy away from or get scared of such food?

post 450. This is the first thing I found on aqualoGo. If, of course, this creature in the photo is from the Black Sea, then I believe you, as a person from Odessa, that it is harmless.

hmm, interesting resource, thank you))) I'm already reading))) Why such dislike??? oO

Common sea worm. Lives in the sand, in shallow waters. Fish love it, especially mullet takes it well.

Here, I'm aware. In the Caspian Sea, where it was introduced from the Black Sea estuaries for acclimatization in a quantity of either 60,000 or 600,000 individuals in the 1930s, it now accounts for 70-80% of the food for sturgeon. What a deserving little worm. P.S. Why such dislike??? No dislike, it just resonates or "was inspired by music."

Courtney

it's good that it didn't turn out like with the rabbits in Australia... )))

James

In the sense that a worm would eat all the sturgeon?

Anne

You can expect anything from these worms... for example, the worm ate all the corals and scared away all the tourists...))))

Ah, that's why there are no corals in the Caspian Sea!

Jesse

Hmm, I always thought it was beautiful there, etc. Although the Aral Sea is more interesting)))) from a microbiology perspective)))
