Antennae?

[Apollo7235]

Hi there all,

it looks like there are two antennae sticking out of a tiny tube on the side of my dendro frag and it looks like there may be more than one set of them around the frag. I noticed this when I first got it a few weeks ago, but thought it was part of my GHA problem. I dip all my frags in ReVive for 15minutes and Bayer for 10 minutes, so whatever this is resisted the dips.

Any ideas? Maybe just a filter feeder of some sort (hopefully)?

Thanks!

I believe it’s some type of worm, forget what kind. Harmless filter feeder, there are a few in my tank.

Oh good, thank you! Strange that it didn’t come off during the dips though.....right?

These guys bury in the rocks like fan worms, not easy to remove even with a dip.

They don’t impact the health of the coral by burrowing into them?

I’m not too sure, but I don’t think it affects the coral.

Spionid worm harmless.
