So I just noticed a weird critter on my zoa frag just now and was wondering if anyone can ID what this is? It looks like a spaghetti worm of some sorts but I am not sure. It has the weird red tubes coming out from it. Photo is below has it circled.

That's a little feather duster worm of some kind (I can't tell which from the pics, but they're all harmless filter-feeders).

Looking back to your reefing roots: Did you start with Instant Ocean salt?
