Christmas tree worm rock & copperband butterfly...Bad idea?

[-joe-]

Should I take out the copperband and put him in another tank? I'm conserned he'll be after the worms.

Thanks, Joe

lol - he will likely make quick work of them for sure!!

Would definitely be a good idea to separate them.

I was thinking the same thing. When I had a CBB it totally wiped out each and every featherduster I had in the tank. I don't see why it wouldn't go after the CT worms as well.

Joe,

As you know, I have a copperband as well. It has not bothered my christmas tree worms although it has cleaned the tank out of every other fan type worm. He tried to get them at first but the worms become aware very quickly that there is a predator in the tank. Now anytime there is movement in front of them they are gone in a flash. The copperband has been in there for about 3-4 months and the worms are doing great. I think the CB gave up on them long ago.

Well I took him out just in case. I might try him this weekend (when I'm around to keep a close watch on things) just to see what he will do with the worm rock.

Thanks, Joe
