Vermitid snails?

[RedFrog211]

Just noticed these on my snail’s shell- are they Vermitid snails? I tried uploading a video, but it wouldn’t upload properly. You can see them mostly on the left side. I know there’s a small feather duster on the right. I put the snail in a quarantine tank cause I couldn’t bring myself to just throw it away, but also don’t want to infect my reef!

I dont see a calcified tube, my assumption would be a burrowing variety of worms.

Edit: Spionid Worm

Yeah that’s a safe bet- may just toss the snail then

Hydroids growing on zoa?

I do have small hydroids on the glass (circular white body with tendrils coming off) but I just suck them out with a pipette anytime I see them. My tank is only 4 months old, and I’ve read that they’re common in newer tanks

Yeah, I had the medusa stage of them for the first couple of months. Gone after about 6 months and havent seen anything since.
