Coco Worm Orange Lg

The Orange Coco Worm extends a bright feeding crown from a hard, calcium-based tube. The visible plumes are working feeding structures that collect fine particles from passing seawater; the worm itself remains protected inside the tube.

Position the tube securely in rockwork with the crown clear of abrasive surfaces. Moderate water movement should deliver suspended food without battering the delicate radioles. This animal needs an established aquarium and a deliberate supply of appropriately sized planktonic foods, rather than occasional scraps intended for fish.

Maintain calcium, alkalinity and stable marine water conditions to support the tube and its occupant. Watch the worm's feeding activity and protect it from animals that peck at feather dusters. The demanding feeding routine makes this a choice for a keeper prepared to balance nutrition with water quality.
