Giant worm! What is this?

[Eagle_Steve]

even at that size?? it looked like it eats babies whole for breakfast!

Ohh yeah. It would have been picked to pieces moving around like that.

Ignorant newb here but I saw something similar in my tank recently and concluded it was some sort of larval form of a bristleworm, apparently they can break off a part of themselves and it turns into that or something? But not as big. Haven't seen it since, but it definitely freaked us out too.

I’ve lived in Florida my whole life and never seen or heard of these things.

WEIRD!
