Worms in sand bed?

[Gonj]

Noticed these in my tank today, what are they, are they dangerous should I remove them?

just part of a maturing tank…
leave them alone.

Looks like a type of tube worm but i could be wrong. Shouldnt disturbing anything!

I believe its possible to deduce you did not use dry rock to start this reef, it’s live rock transferred from another tank somehow? The sand looks too clean overall to be an old tank

fun to guess as much from a single pic is any of that the origination source for the rock in the tank


worms come from exactly that kind of rock, skip cycle live rock.

I recently changed my dt so the rocks came from my old dt, it is live rock, I never noticed these in my old dt as I used to have black sand.
