I wish it were. It’s about a foot long. It was picking up snail shells and moving them in front of the entrance to its cave.

I'm with zygote on this one, you'd be surprised how big ordinary bristles can get (I've had a few foot longs in my bigger tanks, maybe a little over).

Plus there's literally thousands of species of Eunicid worms...

Edit: Man I just saw your update that you sold it all. Sorry this caused you to get out and I hope you can get back into it soon.

And whoever bought it needs to keep us updated!

Bummer! Would love to see it in person. Awesome specimen if you ask me.

That’s exactly what this one looked like, just much smaller. Same white band around the “neck.” Was in my tank for about a year.

That is exactly what mine did. At night he would take frag plugs (with corals attached) and would use them to plug up his live rock hole. That’s how I knew it was a eunicid not a bristlewom. Guess where mine came from? Roozens

Additionally, the first single of my new band "Crumbs Of Flesh" will have the following lyrics on the first song:

 

"Its not going to attack you.....

pick up the rock and see whats underneath....

wear gloves if you need to....

if it's in the hole, lure it out with crumbs of flesh."

wanna borrow my multitrack recorder

Freaky behavior, man. I had a nightmare about it last night lol ... mine came from House of Tropicals.

Rob and I never made our death metal album. Good laugh in the archives on this one.

Such a shame. What could possibly be more important?

Sure did. Got back in a year and a half ago with another nano. Had a kalk mishap and had to do a reset on it about 6 months back ?
