Antenna hiding for 2 weeks

yusor · 08/04/2014, 07:23 PM

It has been 2 weeks or little more since I got my cured live rocks,

I see an old tube of some kind of tube worms,

and there is a creature that been hiding there since I got the rocks, never ever goes out .. I see it's antennas every once in a while, antennas are brown , the body seems to be a little darker but I cannot see it ..
any idea what it might be ?

It would help to take a picture and post it. We can give you a better answer with a pic at least.

Maybe a Vermetid snail, or perhaps a Spionid worm?

It's too small to be clear in a camera , I can barely see them.

Thanks cloak, after researching it looks like a vermetid snail

only large one in the tank .. should I leave it alone ?

Without a picture this isn't easy. Could it be a spaghetti worm or hair worm? Cloak's link above can also help with this.

no no , I am very sure it is vermetid.

yes Cloak's link helped a lot thanks.

then I researched and found out it's vermetid snail, I have only one of them but large...

it's not annoying me , but I did not understand if it will cause any harm to the creatures in the tank , or if it will reproduce?
