    Anyone know what this worm is? It's white and dead center. Ive seen them before but very seldom. Now they have reproduced and there are a lot. I've used a bunch of hitchhiker ID sites but I can't seem to find this.

    My guess would be small peanut worm. They usually have brown rings & clean off detritus around its hole.

    Looks like a lot a different worms. Typically if you don't see it eating anything living, its probably eating detritus or waste and not problematic to your tank.

    Well I just had a strange occurrence where some zoos didn't open for a while and then a few of them turned yellow and died. I dipped and fragged the zoas but all that came out of the dip was a bristle worm. I've had them for 6 months and I don't know what would cause it. I thought maybe these?
