Found a worm. Need an ID.

i found a worm in my tank today.
he was too small to get any kind of clear pic.
he was bright red with a white stripe down his back.
at first i thought it was a hermit crab leg, but went in for a better look to realize it was deffinatly a worm.

any ideas. im jsut mostly worried if he will be bothersome to any of my corals.

Try looking for a picture of a bristle worm. That's probably what you have.

Best of luck,

Roy
