Tiny Bristleworm?

[kartrsu]

Is this a Bristleworm or something else? Hopefully not a fireworm! This must have transferred from my frag tank to my display inadvertently, but I have not seen any fireworms in my frag tank.

I’m assuming you sped up your video but it looks like a normal bristle worm to me. They’re a very important clean up crew member. They can get in places most others cannot.

Thanks, video was not sped up. These guys are fast if they need to be.

That looks like a Dorvilleidae worm to me. Polychaete but not a bristleworm

That looks like a Notinmyreef worm to me lol

The antennae on worm suggests a euicid worm and one you want to remove and discard

Most eunicid worms are perfectly fine in our tanks.

I agree that it’s either a Dorvilleidae or Eunice worm. I would absolutely get rid of it in case it is a Eunice worm.

I only see 4 "antennae". Where do you see 5??

I tried pausing the video to where I could see the appendages but couldn’t. The last second of the video seems to show it but I can’t get it paused at the right spot.

I went back to look and I think it does have 5 antennae. Are there reef safe Eunice worms? Is this really gonna be an issue? I see like a cluster of them in a virtually impossible hard to reach spot.

Corals and livestock all fine, although I had some STN on a green stylo likely due to shading.

Def not a bristle worm, when in doubt Take it out.

Yes. Most Eunice worms are fine.
