Hey guys, I need some help identifying this creature. I've noticed that some of my snails have been turning up empty recently. This morning before the light turned on I was looking around and saw that my Mexican turbo snail was flipped over and dead. I went to go pull him out and noticed a large tube worm near by. I was able to capture this video after removing the snail. He had to be at least 6-8" maybe even longer. Im thinking he is a Bobbit worm. How would be the best way to remove him? removing rock is not an option.

A little history on the tank. Its a 120g mixed reef tank. Its fairly new to me about a month at my house. I bought it from the owner who's had it set up for 10 years.
