Some sort of worm needs identification

[myles4miles]

This worm has no bristles, and looks smooth with peices of armor on him, he is wrapped around my Goni colony, I think I saw him when I got the colony but just passed it off as part of the Goni skeleton

Ps light just turned on in pic Goni just opening

pick of the head would be useful. @ISpeakForTheSeas

That would surely help, especially if we can see the face.

Looks like it could be a large vermetid snail but some better pics would help.

Not a vermetid snail, didn't realize it was moving like that.

Is it starfish arms? I would pluck that bad boy out and put it in a dish for a closeup.

It’s not a starfish arm

If anyone was wondering it was a syllis worm

I was also looking up dorvilleidae and capitellid. But I think you got it. This old post tracks too

I've seen these (and "Accordion Worms") pop up a couple of times, and I've seen (I think I've even given it a couple times) the Syllis/Syllid ID before, but I haven't found any Syllid species that look like this (most have elongated chaetae/bristles that I've seen).

OP, I would (tentatively, at this point) compare to Iphitime species at this point, as that's the closest genus I know offhand at the moment.

I am always wondering the outcome of strange things in our tanks. Thanks for sharing
