I'd help please (worm)

So I noticed my bounce has been looking like it's not doing so good lately and about 5 minso ago I went to check on it and I seen this huge worm across it. At first I'm thinking this is the biggest Bristol worm I've ever seen but I don't know if it's a Bristol???

Bristle Worm. Of which there are several species.

Agreed.

Looks like one of the harmless larger varieties that I have never had issue with, they always went back in the tank.

Greado article-thanks. Hopefully that bounce will make a comeback now that I removed what's bothering it. Glad I seen it

I had one of those around that size that used to mess with one of my shrooms, Idk if it was eating on it or just irritating it but he got gone:D

I also noticed little shrimp lookING things irritating some of my zoos but always thought they were just pods and I don't have enough fish to eat them all type thing but now I'm not so certain. Ever seen any of these?

Pods refers to a huge group of species. If pods are unchecked you will have some corals who will get irritated from them, and that might be what's going on with you.

Here's a ReefKeeping article about what the term pod actually encompasses. http://reefkeeping.com/issues/2004-08/rs/index.php

Most of the time pod just refers to copepods and amphipods.
