A coupl IDs

[Cthulukelele]

I have a stringy thing that has been swaying atop an acro frag for a week or so.

I also have a weird tube looking thing that sticks out 2 little antennae living between 2 acan heads.

Any ideas?

Really can't ID anything with those pics. Could be a coral barnacle, a type of worm, etc.

Hard to tell from the pic! Google Polychaete Chaetopterid Spionid and coral barnacle.

It is totally a chaetopterid! Will it harm the acan?

He be just fine

It is kinda fun watching them tussle for food. I assumed the worm would be a filterfeeder but when I spot fed the acan its little 2 footed tentacle stretched out about a quarter inch and had a little tug of war before giving up lol

Sometimes it's just easier to look it up and see what YOU are seeing if we can't capture it in clear pics, try here.
