    I have only seen juveniles when the lights were off or if I only had the actinic blues running. Not sure if it's because they lay low during lights on or if they're just harder to see with the white lights.

    I had one of that variety it had a door on its hole made from mucus and shells and it would dart out and grab a chunk of food and then go back in
    I watched it for about 3 mos then it disappeared. smart little bugger with large antenna and it stayed bone white

    It looks like a fire worm.
