One of my Lads saw this tonight (he was dropping pellets to the peppermint shrimp without me knowing), tank is a few years old, and never seen it before tonight!
Nothing has been added other than coral, which has always been dipped!
I was rearranging my scape and took two large pieces of live rock out overnight. This giant worm was on the floor, still moving so I put it in water.
Bobbit worm, correct?
I had 3-5 fairy wrasses disappear in the last year and a half. Most recently a Naoko. All new additions so I assumed...

I know that species ID can be a problem so if at all possible I would...

I was looking in my tank the other night about 30 mins after daylight switched to moonlight. Worm was about 0.5" in length and transparent. I'm afraid it could be a young bobbit or some other predatory worm. After some initial googling it kind of looks like a Dorvilleidae worm also. I really...
