What you're seeing are thousands of little worms in a giant cocoon. They move by all of them jumping, which makes it look like it is pulsating. These worms are normal, and are often at pet stores to feed your fish. Free Beer and Hot Wings taught me something! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dashuu 11 #3 Posted July 3, 2009 Wow, they really blend together. Is it the cam quality, or do they really resemble one solid piece of mass? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h3gi 5 #4 Posted July 3, 2009 (edited) Wow, they really blend together. Is it the cam quality, or do they really resemble one solid piece of mass? They can also survive in areas so heavily polluted with organic matter that almost no other species can endure. By forming a protective cyst and lowering its metabolic rate, T. tubifex can survive drought and food shortage. I'm guessing that's what happened.
