Obviously there’s a lot of these in my tank. I’m doing some rock rearranging today pulling some rock out and going to nuke them to kill these things. But I want to know if they are Vermatid snails or tubeworms. I’ve never seen the snail structure like I’ve seen in pictures on the Internet. So here’s a picture and hopefully someone that knows more about it than me you can let me know. And if there’s a way to kill these dang things I know Vermatids are impossible but are tubeworms also?

Also nuking your rock isn't gonna do you any good unless you are nuking all your rock. That would definitely be an over-reaction to these guys. UNLESS you either figure out a way to starve them, the only way to get free of them is to start over. I have them and decided to just live with them. I plug any big ones that I find and leave the smaller ones alone. I use epoxy to do it.
 
Crap! Yeah.... too many corals to go through replacing all.... I had some clean rocks I was putting in so I figured I would kill what I could before I place them back in my sump... ughhhh I hate them!!!
