Help identify worm

[Jurg]

Tonight I crushed one of my corals that was dieing of RTN. I found what seem to be really skinny worms. I tried to take the best pictures possible. Do these look like anything particular and are they harmful?

Was it in an acan?

No, it was in an acro

I can't see it well enough in the picture. But if it has black stripes by the head. It might be a eunicid worm.

I was thinking just a regular worm, but when I broke open the acro and that was inside thought it could be some bad worm.

Could have been just underneath the acro, or in a crevice in the rock. Those things get everywhere!

Is it segmented or does it have a smooth body? And does it have bilateral symmetry - like if you cut it from head to toe would it be two copies of the same thing?
