Maggot looking critter????
I lost my CBS and while seaching the tank for him I found a very fat 2" maggott looking critter in the tank. The CBS was never found and the skimmer was full of slime so I assumed it was the remains of the CBS What could this fat maggott critter be???? I pitched it in the trash.

Maybe a peanut worm. Too bad if it was; good thing to have.

Not too many 2" isopods around. Not only that but she was able to catch it.

No not an isopod. This thing was 2" or more,very fat and slow. I found it under a live rock. I looked at the pic people had posted of the peanut worm but I can`t really say that`s what it was. It didn`t have the skinny black and white part. Just looked exactly like a maggot but very fat and big. In one pic I noticed what looked like this worm but it had the skinny part.
Still looking . |

They can "suck" the skinny part inside their body. Wish I could do the same with the fat part.

Gee if they can do that then it was a peanut worm. Hopefully i`ll find more. Yeah i`d like to be about to suck in my fat like I could when I was younger. Now i`d pass out if I inhaled that much
