Hello all, I could use some help identifying these guys.....

The one real nasty looking one I happened upon as i was searching thru sand looking for my conch. Sucked it out with a turkey baster as I thought it was remains of a hermit crab.

The first is a hair worm -good cuc member

The second is a spirorbid worm -tiny feather duster

The third appears to be a collonista snail but need photos of the top to confirm.
You sure that’s not a red banded trochus? I had one come in on a frag plug and it is an algae earring machine…fairly fast growing one too

No, I'm not sure which is why I said it "appears to be a collonista snail but need photos of the top to confirm"

Thanks for the reply. Good to know these guys that have been found in my tank aren't outright alarming.
