Hi

Could anybody tell me what this red worm thing is. If you look closely you can see it has eyes on the right handsome. I noticed it last night swimming about the tank very fast

No defiantly not a bristle work. It swims about in the water really fast and spins around.

Polychaete epitoke most likely.

I wouldn't worry too much about it. Seeing things like this is usually a good thing.
