Is there such a thing as too much spaghetti?

I forgot their scientific name, but I have literally dozens of these worms. Everywhere you look in my 55gallon, all you see are what seems like hundreds of their clear little tentacles poking out of the sand and rocks. They are every where!

I had a lot of those in my old 125. They were an eye sore and annoyed my zoas, so I say yes you can have too many. Don't know a good way of getting rid of them though.

I don't think you can have to many spaghetti worms. I would think that if your going to incorporate a DSB, you would want to do all that you can to promote the population. My 9 year old DSB was just littered with them. I would feed the tank and the ground would move, literally. There a vital componet of a CUC IMO, DSB or not.

Not only are they a vital component, get rid of them and you will find out why you had so many. IME things do not multiply if they are not eating.
