Coco worm success

[Chrisv.]

I'm interested in adding a coco worm to one of my tanks, a skimmer less aio cube.

I go extremely light on mechanical filtration, so there is always a bit of particulate in the water.

The tank is a mixed reef, but has enough sps to justify feeding reef roids and aminos 2x per week.

I feed the tank with tdo pellets and Prime Reef on alternating days.

The only fish of concern is a yet-to-be added pink streak wrasse, if I can ever find one.

Questions:

1) do we think the coco worm would be eaten by the pink streak?

2) would I need additional supplemental feeding if I wanted to do a Coco worm?

You might want to consider dosing live phyto.

i do not believe the pink streak would go for the coco. i have a yellow coris wrasse in my 40b, and it does nothing to my feather duster, and coco worm. he's well fed with pods and reef frenzy.

If you feed reef roids the worm will love it. And shouldn't need any supplemental feeding. My feather duster goes crazy for it.

Thanks, all!

For those of you with fan worms that feed reef roids, are you target feeding or broadcast feeding? It seems to retract pretty quickly when I try to target feed.

i broadcast feed as that is how they feed. target feeding is more for corals, imho.
