Anyone know what this little wormy guy is? When it's "eating"? It has what looks like a white tube worm duster come out of its mouth and is always hiding in the same crevasse in the rocks.
Peanut worm. That is its feeding trunk. The rest is inside the rock.

A big one too! I want it!!!!!!!
Sorry man this was when I first started up my tank back in December. This thing freaked me out to no end. I took the rock out and cooked it. Had I known before there were people that liked em I would've trapped it and sent it to ya!

Try posting a clear picture of what they look like for better identification
