![]() Ya probably a bristle worm.....I had hundreds survive the cycle....along with a few colonies of Zoas, mushrooms and Palys, which are still thriving today....And I was dosing pure ammonia to speed things up! I was suprised at how resilient some of these species are.

![]() If it's a bristle worm, they are just fine if not beneficial to your tank. They eat poop.
If you get a big sucker (I say 3" +) I usually take those ones out just because they are so big and gnarly. But wee ones will be just fine... But don't touch them with your bare hands... you'll do it once and never forget it...fiberglass like splinters in your finger. I recommend duct tape for removal!! EDIT: And for confirmation, always best to post a picture for any sort of I.D. Try to snap one so we can take a look-see.
