Do you mean "Bristle worms"?

 

[Richie27]

no they are hard tubes growing off live rock and spits out a long slimy string to catch food

vermitid snails. I have the same problem. Pretty much wrecked my tank

I think what you are talking about are vermetid worms. And if so they are a huge pain to totally get rid of.

Definitely talking vermetid snails... I've had them for the last 18 months or so... they love it when you turkey baste the rocks and kick up detritus. As long as you don't overfeed and you keep your tank clean their numbers should stay relatively low. Other than crazy glue, I have heard of some wrasses that'll eat them if you break off the base so they can get to them. Honestly, I'd just go nuts on those single use super glue gel tubes at the dollar store and go to town once a week or so... the more often you feed or kick up detritus in the tank, the more they'll proliferate.
