Is this a bobbit worm?

Please tell me it’s not LOL I’m so irrationally afraid of these things

It might be. It’s not a bristleworm or fireworm, so maybe a bobbit worm expert can weigh-in?

Yes it is. nice jaws you have there,. But not really "The" bobbit worm. A eunicid worm species.

There are some who only are detrivores, herbavores or carnavores. Which ever one that is, I do not know. If you want to make it a different system to keep, you can. 10g aquarium would be large enough.

They have theses mandibles they grab their food with. Very powerful.

Don't feel bad. I butchered one that was over 2 ft in length. I believe it was anyhow.
