common name is bristleworm - a very general term that gets applied to several different varieties of polycheate sp. most all are beneficial detrivores.

Do you know what that one is? I saw one in a tank of mine a couple of years back. Yours is the only other I've seen.

Anybody remember Steve Weasts 3 footer?? That was the biggest worm I had ever seen. Must have been at least 5 years ago or so. Will see if I can dig up the pic.

It's a hair worm. Cirratulidae sp. These don't live in a tube the spaghetti worms do.

gfsrepairs - my bad, didn't notice who posted and just responded to the previous post and pic. Your pic is in fact a spaghetti worm. Good Guy.
