Came in on something I bought at a swap. Didn't notice until next day so I'm not sure what it was on.

I can’t see the video, but based on the title, does it look like this?


Just to note, that is a Eunice worm in the picture, not an actual bobbit.

I added a photo and tried re-uploading the video. It looks teardrop shaped and slides around, not so much crawling.

Lol, definitely not what I imagined in my mind. I don’t know what that could be, hopefully others will chime in.
