Today I decided to finally look into a worm I have had in my tank, I want to figure out what exactly it is out of curiosity (if possible). I took a video of it using a USB microscope, it looks like it eats sand? I was hoping I could get to see the end of its body but it wouldnt cooperate it seems like its body goes on forever! Im counting 5 tentacles(?) on its head, Im not sure what the identification factors are for polychaete worms. The usb microscope has really bad FPS so sorry bout that.
This worm is very thin, less than 1mm
Edit: Pretty sure its a beneficial Eunicid worm judging by the sand in its body
Sand in digestion tract timestamp
