Speghetti worm

[Jekerry]

I think I have a speghetti worm! I saw these tiny, skinny white arms waving around from the sand. Suddenly one snagged a flake of food and pulled it under the sand. Then they all pulled under the sand.

Do you think that was a speghetti worm? I hope so.

Sounds like a spaghetti worm to me. Do there appear to be multiple "tentacles" spreading out from one location? Crazy little creatures like these are actually some of my favorite parts of a reef tank. I'm currently disappointed that the spaghetti worms seem to have disappeared from my tank -- I suspect my rainford goby ate them.

Yes, they were all in a line, very close, and when one snagged the food they all pupped back under. So cool.
