ok today i noticed that i dont have any speghetti worms on my rock anymore not that i was wanting to keep them but is it possible that my shrimp ate those worms? also i have some kind of worm in my rocks i have about 4 of them it has 5 antenae and it has mandibles and hairs like a bristle or fireworm. i have no clue as to what it is and i really dont feel safe grabing it for ID. cause it might reach around and tag me. all i know is that its super long about 4in.
Anytime you have a question like that for a description it would be great to have a photo to look at. It may be a Synaptula lamperti, but again hard to say. Does it look like the photo below? Close-up of the pinnate feeding tentacles of Synaptula lamperti. Like most of the apodid cucumbers, one of the attractions of these animals for aquarists is that these feather-like feeding tentacles are in almost constant motion.
