Worm ID please

Just took these from the rock work, and under the microscope.

Any ideas?

Both worms found together.





Thanks,

Looks a lot like a dorvilleidae worm, although it could be a bobbit worm.

What makes you say bobbit worm?

I was thinking some kind of polychaete for both.

You are right, it's Dorvilleidae worms. Under the scope they released a greenish colour from their tail end which I'm guessing was algae....

Thanks man.
