Its the Loch Ness Monster!!
 

Ok this freaked me out today. I'm guessing its just a very big bristle worm...but it doesn't look like the smaller ones I have. They are grey and flat with pink pointy tips and this guy is yellow with a little head with 2 black eyes and 2 antenneas. He is at least 7" long maybe more. :eek:

Is it a bristle worm??? or should I be hiding the dogs and cats from this monster??

Scary looking thing :eek: Don't have a clue if it's a bristleworm or not, but suspect it is. Maybe post the pics at RC for a better ID.

He's a cute little sucker!!

I have a worm like that. It is about 10 inches long. Now heres the fun part. When I feed the aqurium it will come out of hiding and eat the Mysis Shrimp! In my option they are not bad and are just a "cute" little pet.

Are you sure that's it's head? It looks like an injured tail to me. :confused:

Up Periscope!

Looks harmless to me. In fact, it is likely a beneficial waste eater.

I personally think it looks like a giraffe :biggrin:
