Is this guy bad?

[Chrisq0904]

Just saw this worm in my tank. I only had my phone available hopefully you can make out what it is. I think it's a black Eunice worm.

Fire! I don't believe you want this guy.

looks like a bristle worm to me. A HUGE one at that.

It's definitely some form of eunicid. I would get it out. Those things are creepy!

 

[reepher315]

Very good info there. Hope I never need it

 

[Chrisq0904]

I think I got the rock I saw it on. I have it in a bowl hoping for it to show it's face

 

[Chrisq0904]

If I treat the entire rock with coral dip (revive) can I put it direct back in the tank if the worm comes out?

 

[Chrisq0904]

Got the little s***

 

[rovster]

Nice!

I had one in my 65gal that measured over 30"... good you got him out now, instead of later in pieces.
