Eunice worm? Or something else?

Was just breaking down my nano, and this guy comes crawling out of a ball of chaeto. Thought eunice were mostly sand dwellers, but not really sure what this guy is. Any ideas?

I think it's a cucumber. The little frills on the tentacles. No jaws.

Oh, didn't even think of that possibility, but i think you are right. Very cool. Found two more in the chaeto and set the nano back up to keep these guys and observe.

Your my kind of people. Most folks flush em.
We get out another tank.

Very cool, I would not be upset if I happen to get one in as a hitchhiker in the future.

Love sump watching. I find "new" creatures in mine all the time.
Whenever I build a new larger tank I am going to make a nice big refugium because I enjoy watching those creepy crawly things in the sump! Maybe a fuge where I dont have to lay down on the floor to do that watching.

So today when I got home and did some tank watching, I found something interesting. It appears my cucumbers have reproduced.
