EW BIG BROWN GROSS WORMY

[kristine bean]

I just found a bit squirmy brown worm in my tank. Is it is a bristle worm? I hope nobody yells at me for assuming it was bad and removing it.

Do these worms just randomly appear at any time from your Live Rock? And also, is there a way to prevent them?

did it look like this? if so that was a bristle worm. have u seen any tube like burrows in ur live rock? also did the worm thing have black dot like eyes?

Woah, was that guy in your tank? he looks big!! i dont know it may have just been a tube worm??? don't those come out of feather dusters? i read that feather dusters have worms inside and come and go periodically...

i really couldnt tell if he had eyes or not. i probably should have examined closer but i had the heeby geebies. But he was brown with some type of texture...
