Spirorbid worms. Common filter feeders :)

Dont worry, if this is the first time theyre popping up, they will bloom like crazy but then some will die off and itll settle in

Oh ok...ya they are in my qt system for some reason....never seen them before and they appeared out of nowhere! I also have a fire shrimp and a Randall’s pistol shrimp in qt. Must have came from a sponge or a coral that I’m qt right now...

The strange thing is that they have been in qt for a month and I’m about to place them in my system next week. So they are reef safe?

Be careful when your hand is in the tank. They're a bit sharp and can scratch you.

I have them and they are reef safe. It's a good sign that your tank is healthy.
