mcegelsk Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 Please help me identify this thing. I don't think its aiptasia. It feeds itself by rolling one arm at a time into the center. Looks nasty. Link to comment
shaggydoo541 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 I think it looks pretty cool. Definitely not aiptasia though. Looks like some kind of worm. Is that a tube that it is sticking out of or just a hole in the rock? Link to comment
newreef8584 Posted February 17, 2006 Share Posted February 17, 2006 looks like a form of worm possibly Terebella, Amphitrite. If it is they are harmless filter feeders and very reef friendly. Maybe google them to get a closer look for a positive ID. Link to comment
SaltwaterGoldfish? Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 I have these in my tank too and I've always wondered... they have the symmetry of an octocorallian... so thats my best guess... I'm sure someone here must know Link to comment
Caesar777 Posted February 18, 2006 Share Posted February 18, 2006 Filter-feeding sea cucumber or possibly Medusa worm. Harmless. Link to comment
