Swimming worm thing ID

[BillV]

Anyone have any idea what this is? I occasionally find them in my reef tank at night swimming in the water column. I thought it was a bristle worm but was told no by the LFS.

Is it red? Looks a little a spaghetti worm but never seen them swimming freely.

Ya when it stopped moving that’s what it looks like. OP, don’t give it anymore coffee!

Thanks. They always look that excited. So I shouldn’t be using coffee grounds as filter media? lol.

Always some neat creatures found in a reef tank. He's probably causing no harm.

This guy may know what it is. LOL!

I was thinking eunice or dorvilleidae worm but can't really see it that well.

I wish I had that much energy.

(It looks as if one of his pet-worms escaped.)

Looks like a typical bristleworm epitoke to me but that’s just a guess
