i've found tonight two fire worms in my tank!!

one is slightly larger than the other, i'ev never noticed them before, but when i gave my fish some flake they poked there lil heads out of my LR

we had them spawining in our tank this week, there were the best part of a dozen of them all writhing in and out of the rock and squirting red stuff into the 3water

Did you take photos?

i tried to get photos of mine but they hevent come out very well,

why do pictures on my 1.3 meg camera phone turn out better than my 7meg camera??

What colour were they? fire worms are usually red from what I have seen. Do you know if it is a dangerous one? Might be worth trying to catch.
