I have no idea what this thing is; I moved my zoa rock because I was changing up my rock work, and this slimy thing almost like a slug, but it was kind of dangling from what looked like a spider web, I've been seeing strands of this stuff all around my tank and I couldn't figure out what it was.

For some reason I can't see the pictures I'm going to try and upload them right here one more time.

Wow that's one I haven't seen! @Lionfish Lair may be able to help

I know a great brand of pest control dip that'll fix you up...

Seriously I have no idea what that is. Hopefully it's nothing bad, although it sure LOOKS nasty

I don't think it's a hobbit it was slimy like a slug no she'll or skeleton at all

@Wiz it's over here
lol

Polychaete - Eunice
Bobbit Worm, Eunice Worm

That slime might be what it uses to make tunnel etc

Kind of looks like it does have some structure. Anyway to stretch it out in cup or on something and get some closeups. Believe me I could be totally wrong

Looks fishy to me, Renee might give us the right answer.

 

[Wiz]

Idk. Hard to make out detail. Don't kill it though. Ill take it if you don't want it. lol love strange critters. If you have more pics, I'd love to see em.

 

[garra671]

Couple more pictures; there is definetly no structure to it; (I squeezed it) it's slimy and slug like the small things on the side are kind of tentacles that I tore off accidentally when getting it off the rock.

 

[Chris Adams]

ok that is weird totally not what I am seeing in that first pics. Got me

 

[saltyfilmfolks]

terebellid polychaete? the biggest one ever?

 

[ReefBuzz]

Whoa! Gnarly looking thing!

 

[cmcoker]

Spaghetti worm maybe? The slimy part would be the worm, stringy part it's feeding appendages?
Try looking that up and see if it looks like the spider Web stuff your seeing..
The broken parts in the cup looks like the exposed part of the spaghetti worms in my tank

 

[Wiz]

Looks like a spaghetti worm. Cool
