Hi i started my first reef tank like 3 weeks ago, when I got my live rock there was a little thing that I didn't payed that much attention on one of the stones, yesterday when I was rearranging the rocks I found out thus little guy was bigger and had grew something like a tentacle.

I been looking everywhere on the net, but I haven't found anything that looks similar.

Yup , a peanut worm! Dont worry they are beneficial!

Start looking in the middle of the night with after your lights have been off for a few hours . Use a small pen light and keep the room dark. You will be amazed!
Happy hunting!
