found this little guy today by accident. Came along with my pretty mushroom rock. Any idea what it is? Think it will hurt my mushrooms?

To me that looks like a very small feather duster worm. No it won't hurt your mushroom (not that anything can hurt a mushroom) and when it grows it can look really cool.

tbh it is a small brown variety of feather duster most likely of a different species from those larger colorful ones. It most likely will just stay small and brown

+1 Micro feather duster. They tend to spread of there's high nutrients and then end up moving to the shaded areas of the tank and sump. Good guy to have in my opinion.
