    This one was hard to believe. I was at our local high end lfs and the had torn down one of their coral tanks. there was a 15 gal sitting on the counter with some rock and the water was very hazy. They gave me scuba light and told me to look in under the shelf rock. Under there was a 7' long potato worm that had been tearing up their corals, that's right...SEVEN FEET!!!!

    I guess this is only the second documented case in captivity according to the guy there. If I can I'll get pics.
