I'll hijack my own thread. This guy was making nightly appearances, then stopped. I think he's about 8" or so. I asked my wife and son if we should try to catch it, but they both like it.

These can reach a foot in length. Mine love left over food. But, I think someone of my fish crew has murdered them all.
I had/have those. Fire gobies share a home with them. Great scavenger. Make sure to offer it a slice of food now and again to enjoy

I just spent the last 15 mins googling and trying to remember the name. .
Knew it started with a D I was spelling dorivale
Youre thinking dorvillidae and its not as dorvillidae is a cousin and close resemblence of bristleworm

This is a bristleworm. I had one at 15"
