What is this?

In my gallery is a photo of a creature that hitchhiked in on my Fiji LR. Look at the top of the sand and you'll see him stretched out from beneath a rock. He seems to nibble on LR or material that is attached to it. He can retract completely and doesn't like light. When retracted, the small part that sticks out looks like a small earthworm. So far I have seen about 2-3" of him out foraging, but no telling how much more is under the rock or in a hole.

Is he good or bad? If bad, how do I get rid of him?

Thanks.

It's a peanut worm. They're harmless detritivores.

if you want him out you can go the old tilted glass trick with bate in the bottom, but as greenbean said, it should be safe

Thanks!

Thanks!

I'll leave him alone and let him munch on my LR "droppings" - while the rock is cycling. Thanks for the replies...
