I got some copepods and amphipods today and put them in a tank to breed them. I just came up to look at tank and there are quite a few of these… pretty small but look different than anything I’ve seen so far

Anyone have any clue what it is?

Thanks!!!

some type of polychaete worm. Baby brissle worm? fire worm? or another of the thousands of possibilities. Hard to tell. Personally I'd remove it, burn it with fire and cross all my fingers an toes that was the only one... but this is very unlikely.

If it's a bristle worm, you may need Holy Water as well........
