    Tube Worm in SPS?

    Hi everyone, Do any of you know what this is growing on the bottom of this montipora? Coral isn’t happy, planning a lugol’s dip and slight relocation. Thanks, Adam

    White worms on the glass and floating around

    Hello! Since some days ago I’ve noticed that there are some of this thin white worms attached to the glass, sometimes they hide on the sand and when they’re near the water flow they unnatach and float around the water in a crawled position. I leave a video and some photos to see if anyone knows...

    ID Dip Critters

    One of the heads on my torch was closed up the other day, and I saw a black dot on it. Next it went straight into some coral RX and some critters fell off... https://photos.app.goo.gl/XP4exzjVkvCwNzPc9 The head still isn't open (not even a day after the dip, but still...), so I'm hoping...

    Worm with long legs and red square pattern. What is it?

    So my wife had me clean and move a bookshelf on the side of the tank today and I've been enjoying a view of the tank I haven't had and noticed the sand bed was pushed up on the glass. Low and behold I see worms in the sand I don't recognize. I'm terrified for the worst ID possible, but I can't...

    Zebra worm?

    The worm is in the center extending from the rock. It bores into the rock and has been in the same spot for months. I can tell it is boring into the rock because it leaves behind a small pile of castings every so often in the exact same spot. It has no bristles and does not appear to be...

    Chemistry or worm of some sort

    Can't figure out if this was a ca problem, precipitation for far to long or some kind of worm eating the coral. Heads look great eats at night. Coral makes me scared. Didn't notice until I was working on a clean up. In the photo the left branch is holding on by a thread

    Worms/Pest on glass? Parasite?

    These are very small. Can barely see them with my eye but I used a high power magnifying glass over the camera lens to capture an image an video. Please tell me these aren't bad. But if they are how do I remove them!?

    Worm with 2 tentacles?

    Found this 10 mins ago. There are a bunch of them. Seems like when the lights go out, they come out. Are they good or bad. Also, what do they eat and what is it? What do they do?

    Australia and Nudibranchs/Sea Slugs.

    Hypothetically if you were Australian and you were struggling for months to find a distributor in your country to purchase a specific Nudibranch you have researched in depth, and it is illegal to import pretty much all marine animals in Australia without a license. And you didn't want a license...

    Baby brittle star or worm?

    Hi Experts, noticed this hanging out of a hole in a rock. It is only about 2.5cm and didn't move much. Didn't get the chance to see rest of the body part (hidden in the hole). Could it be a baby brittle star or is it a worm? Thanks.

One was heavily infested while the others...
