Came in on new coral I picked up at LFS. I thought it was a baby feather duster but it wiggles …

That’s what I thought but everywhere it says that feather dusters don't move only up and down the tube. This doesn’t have a tube it’s just a worm w feather ends… unless if that’s how the babies are lol

The tube may be on one of the corals. They do leave their tubes, and when they do - they definitely wiggle!

Ah that makes sense. Yeah I do see the tube. Crap how do I save it lol just dump it in with the coral?

Place it in a low-flow area in a rock crevice where it can gain a foothold. Then wait. Sometimes they'll grow a new tube - other times not.
