Not something you see everyday

Found this guy wandering around on the glass this evening. These guys have really exploded in my tank over the last 3 months or so and are fun to look at as they send feelers out looking for food. (It's not the best shot though. I REALLY need a macro lens!)

Looks more like a Cirratulid (hair worm) than the Terebellid(Spaghetti worm). What's the difference between these species can be found here (http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2002-06/rs/index.php)

Yeah, that's what happens to this poor worms when wrasses, or Pseudochromis are introduced. They disappear quick... :D

As far as not seen these everyday.., I do see them everyday..

:p
