Should I remove the earthworm from my indoor potted plant? ( kbin.social )

It seems the compost I used was more lively than anticipated. There's an earthworm crawling around in there.
It's a decent 12 inch pot, but it's still effectively a limited environment. So I'm not sure if I should leave him in or take him out.

UPDATE: alright. I'll keep him in, cross my fingers, and hope I've pulled in enough of an ecosystem to both sustain him for his expected lifespan, and safely handle the subsequent death and decomposition.

To better chances of worm survival:

  • Don't let the pot dry out fully
  • Don't use artificial fertilizer
  • Water with filtered water or water that has sat out for at least 24hrs so the chlorine can evaporate
