Hello everyone,
I'm not really new to Saltwater aquariums but it has been at least 8 years since my last saltwater aquarium. About 2 weeks ago I set up my tank, 20 gallons. I'm using this size tank until I get a bigger tank. Problem is I bought two live rocks from my local pet store and I've had problems every since. After buying the rocks my husband and I soon realized that there was a brittle star inside one. Now this past Saturday morning we have found some type of worm crawling on the sand, it's not a bristle worm. From yesterday we found about 3 more coming out of the rock. We removed every worm that we seen. This is just one of my problems that's going on with my tank. All of my tests like Ph, ammonia, and etc are great. Any soultions?
 
Thanks for the replys. The next time I see one I'll get a picture first. Online there are soo many and I can't decide. A few days ago I search around and the picture that looked very similar was what they labeled as "Scary Worm" I don't think that was the official name but that's all that it said.
 
brittle star is a great hitchhiker. Before you start removing things post photos they may be good they help keep the tank in balance.
