worms

My frag tank is bare bottom. This guy was moving across the glass then got under my large duncan. It’s been removed, but I’d still like to know what it is.

These worms appeared on my downpipes, can someone identify them?

Wormlike things? What are they? New reefer here. Only have zoas, a paly, a Kenya Tree. Saw them coming out of sand after lights were out.

Can someone help me identify what these are? I appear to have two groups of them. One are little white circular organisms on the front glass, which are much more dense and prevalent, and then I have little white worms on the sides and back wall of the tank. My fish are swimming and appear...

I have these… things seem to be active at night towards bottom of tank on some rocks. almost like red stringy hair . I guess it could be red hair algae but it looks different. Any help?

All kinds of fun stuff happening here! Looks dull and boring from far but I've been enjoying using the magnifying glass to find all the tiny critters. We started out by accidentally bringing home a Cone Shell Hermit crab inside this Auger shell, threw him in a bucket of water with a nice algae...

Are these vermatids snails on my hammer coral? i recently found one on a candy cane and immediately superglued the tube. this was about a week ago. Today I saw these little growths on the base of my hammer. Was hoping I was quick enough on stopping an outbreak but now I’m getting worried and...

Worm ID* Just noticed a few of these swimming around in my refugium. I couldn't find anything ID'd that looked similar. Thanks!

Looking for name/ID on these worms (this is about the best picture I can get unfortunately). They have a very soft “shell” and tend to live in holes and crevices. They sting soft corals and eventually the corals will die from not opening. These things have propagated and are now all over my...

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...

Hey Reefers, So I went to my tank to do a bit of maintenance this evening. So I put my tank in feed mode to stop the gyres and turn the return pump down to 1%......and when I turned on the tank lights, to my surprise, I see thousands of very tiny worm-like creates swimming around. I am...

I moved a couple pieces of coral and all of the sudden all these little worms emerged.

Hi guys I'm new in the hobby and got my first frag 2 days ago. I tried cutting away a bad part today and when the lights went out I noticed tentacles comming out of the part where I cut the GSP frag. After some research I think it is a spaghetti worm. Can anyone help me identify it? I dipped...

Trying to identify these orange worms

I have a new saltwater tank that is approximately 11/2 months old. It is 55 gallons, but I have 60 lbs of sand and 75 lbs of live and dry rock. I started with a bunch of live rock from a LFS with coralline algae and hitchikers on it. I did a fishless cycle. Dosed Fritz Pro Ammonium Chloride and...

I have a two month old 20 gallon that I’m setting up to introduce corals into in about 3-4 months. I have 4 fish (Clowns and Bangai Cardinals). I only have 6 rocks (about 12-15 lbs) they were all dry but I messed up and did get one live one which must have had hitchhikers . I’ve noticed about...

i just purchased these zoas a couple days ago and was wondering if you can help me I.D any issues with them? they had bubble algae so i did a hydrogen peroxide spray 50/50 with water and now i’m thinking these little tentacles aren’t part of their anatomy either? i also noticed the algae on a...

Hi, these started appearing pretty much as soon as i started my tank and i think they're really ugly. Does anyone know what they are and how to remove them? They seem to like growing right where the soft lps tissue would cover when they grow whuich may be a problem as theyre very sharp and hard...

Hi, I bought this guy the two days ago. I noticed this spot yesterday and was very faint. Today it has gotten darker and maybe pushing out against it's skin. I don't remember seeing this when I purchased it. He is picking at the rock, has eaten some seaweed and some frozen brine shrimp. He is...

So I've started seeing these random white tubes along my sandbed and rockwork. Any ideas on what they might be? A worm? I'm really not sure.

I bought a few Snails today and noticed one of them has white spots on it... I’ll attach a image below, any clue what this is?

So I hadn't noticed this before, but tonight saw these white almost rings coming off my frogspawn. Not sure but they look like worms. Is this something I need to worry about?

I passed by my tank when the lights were off and noticed these worm like things on the glass. I removed from what I can see but sure there’s plenty more. I do not know what they are or if they are harmful to my coral any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

Can someone please I.D. these pictures
