Is this a bristle worm?

[Poocasso85]

Turned on the lights this morning and saw this. Anybody know what it is??

Not a bristle worm for sure, but also not sure what it is though either.

@KJ he can identify it for you.

I think I’ve seen one before. Did a tiny Han Solo fly a spaceship out of its mouth?

That would have been cool but nope.

Looks more like a spaghetti worm.

I'm stumped. I never seen anything like it.

I'm stumped. I never seen anything like it.

I’ve been googling for the past couple hours and can’t find anything that looks like it..

Definitely not a bristle worm but when in doubt pull it out!

 

[Goaway]

Since we can't find it. I am sure its beneficial to have. This does not look like eunice/bobbit worm. Maybe try adding a piece of shrimp where it dwells. If it attacks the shrimp, it could be dangerous.

Put food in and it did not move

 

[homer1475]

Does it move at all?

Can you poke it to see if it moves?

 

[Poocasso85]

I watched it earlier move around

 

[Goaway]

Well if it doesn't move and is dead. Definitely take pics after removal!

Oh, hmm is it stationary? Or does it go back into the rock? This is just interesting. It could be a herbivore/detrivore

 

[Poocasso85]

The rock it’s in came uncured from the gulf. It comes out a ways then goes back in and hides.

 

[Goaway]

What foods do you feed when it shows up? Or is it all random?

 

[Poocasso85]

First I’ve seen if this critter. For food not very much since I only have 2 clowns. So flake and sometimes the frozen

 

[homer1475]

I wonder if it's coming out now, because it's hungry? Could be why you haven't seen it until now.

 

[Poocasso85]

don’t know guess I may have to shut the lights off for a few hours and check.
