What the?

The other night I had to move a few zoanthid/paly rocks and a Lobo due to my cinnamon clown rearranging "his" tank. Somehow I got a "tuft" of small "needles" on my finger. They didn't hurt, just felt weird to the touch. I just washed my hands in warm water and soap and they were gone. What could this have been?

You probably grabbed a rock that had a bristle worm on it.

+1 on briste worm, im surprised you got it to go away with soap and water, never worked for me. always had to go the vinegar route to dissolve them (calcium based spines)
