Worm id
 
Any help here before I post on RC?

This worm only comes out a night and doesn't like light. It's a quick one.

The head has a buch or spikes/anntenna tha fan forward.

Well from that article I think I have a Eunice worm.
It says it can grow upwards of 6 feet+ omg :eek:

It is a 'usual suspect' in dissapearances.
I think my worm is only a few inches right now, can't see all the body.
Hopefully nothing dissapears from my tank....

Good Luck.
I don't think I have one of your worms.
I haven't found any slimed covered snails.
