Worm ID
 

I was watching a little "worm" type thing on my glass yesterday night. It was about an inch and a half long. Looked sort of like a bristle worm, but one end got thinner like it was the tail. It was gorging itself on the green algae growing on the glass. I couldn't believe how fast and how much algae the thing ate. It was light brown almost a little opaque. (You could see the algae inside it after it ate) The thing was also pretty fast moving and moved more like a centipede then a worm. Anyone know what it is?? Unfortunately I left my camera at work and couldn't take a picture. :frown:

Anyone have any good links to hopefully identify this and other different types of worms.
Im sure some of you have pages and pages of bookmarked material. :mrgreen:


TIA!

Have a look at the Hitchiker FAQ by Ron Shimek. I don't remember the URL. :mrgreen:

Thanks Bob.

And I found the link for anyone else whos interested...

http://www.reefs.org/hhfaq/index.html

now to see if there is anything in there... :confused:

Didn't find anything in Ron Shimek's Faq but managed to find a picture of it on the web.
Look familiar to anyone??

You could ask in Shimek's forum? I bet he can give you the latin name, he seems pretty big into worms.
