It’s either a word or neudabranch. It looks like a small Medusa worm though I think. Maybe remove it just in case 
Your call though. I’ve heard Medusas release toxins when they die (but carbon should take care of that)

Agreed. At first glance I'd say bristleworm (good cuc member), but it's really hard to tell. Are there feathery things on its head or is that just algae in the background?
There are feathery things on its head, sorry the pic is bad it’s behind a rock and my lights were off so I had to use flash to be able to see it. It’s green and has some spikes among its body with the feathers out the top
Looks more like a Medusa worm than anything else I’ve found. It’s been in there at least a month so it’s been alright so far might just leave and see though it is quite bigIt’s either a word or neudabranch. It looks like a small Medusa worm though I think. Maybe remove it just in case

Hard to tell with how fuzzy the photo is but it does really look like a sea cucumber, nobody is going to be able to guess the species with those pictures though. Medusa worms are sea cucumbers so not ruling that out.
It is in a bad spot right now to get a better picture without moving it, will have to post a better picture later today or tomorrow if I can catch it in a different spot. The feathers on its head resemble a spiny sea cucumber but it’s green with no other visible colors since it’s in a low light area
