    Wow I must be blind! I have had that live rock for 5 months and have never seen the little guys, and I look pretty hard at my tank.

    Well I figured I was going to get this response... Oh no! That is the German Nazi Worm and it is going to wipe out your entire tank and burn it to the ground while you sleep, that is my typical luck haha
