    Hi guys, sorry I don't have a picture. Couldn't get a good one. But I have some kind of brownish/yellowish worm coming out of the live rock. I have plenty of those purple/orange bristle worms, but what I just saw was nothing like those. This worm looks very much like a meal worm(but much much longer), and a head shaped like a squid's tentacle. Its brown/yellow and actually had legs like a centipede. Any ideas:? Thanks in advance.;D

    It looks like I possible have a Sigalionidae, or Eunicid worm. Are any of these worms bad for the tank? I know the Euclid worm is bad, but is that the same as the Eunicid? Thanks again guys.
