Hello,

I recently got a coral and in the bag, there are a few, maybe 3 or so, of these sort of floating around. The 'tail' of the worm moves around and it sort of swims but not really.

What are people's thoughts? I intend to dip the coral but this little guy in the bag could be tossed into the sump if it's friendly.

Thank you.

It’s a tube worm that has abandoned its tube
They use the fan to capture food
