Hair worm?

[Sistawolf]

I have seen a few of these once in a while when I move a rock or something.. they look balled up and will roll across the sand.. I caught this one and googled it.. looks like a spaghetti or hair room.. any information would be great and if I should track all of them down I see and remove them? @Lionfish Lair or anyone else that may be able to help?

Yup! That's what it is. They are cool and you can leave them be.

Looks like spaghetti worms from the sites I just checked out. Good for a tank. To many means over feeding. Cut back on feeding if they are popping out of the wood works. I am thinking you don't want to starve a ton all at once, because that will make a lot of die off. Having a good balance of them seems to be key. So normal feed for a bit. Just less of it or target feed if you can. Let them balance out what you can't see.

It's actually probably a hair worm. I usually just ID these guys as a spaghetti/hair worm and leave it at that, as sometimes it's really hard to tell the difference in pictures. I. Pretty sure, though, that it's a hair worm.
