We picked up this coco worm today. I have never seen this color before, was wondering if anyone knew what type of worm.

That thing is Awesome! I was looking for Some worms today, wish I would have seen this in one of the LFS.
 
It's not a coco as those as serpulid polychaetes in the genus Protula. The tube looks like segmented pieces of sand rather than solid. If so, it's a feather duster from the family Sabellidae. Without having the worm under a microscope I can't tell you what genus or species, sorry. Feeding requirements are the same as for a coco.
