aefw research

[dlynford]

Hello Mitch,

I found your aefw article particularly useful and humorous. Currently, I am conducting my master’s research at Hofstra University on the genus of aefw that you mentioned in your article.

My question is: do you know any current hobbyists that still have problems with this coral predator that would be willing to send me infected frags? I have sequestered specimens from both Atlantis Aquarium in Riverhead NY, and a coral wholesaler down south, but I could definitely use about 100 to 200 hundred more worms. Right now I attempting to describe their predation rates on aquacultured acropora. I can be reached at dlynford@hotmail.com.

Thanks very much,
