Although, I don't see a hat, that looks like a bristle worm.

Nudibranch?

It totally seems like a nudibranch, yes.

bristle worm to my eye

crabs that come with live rock may be not reef safe.

I agree with everything expect the second to last! It looks like a spaghetti worm especially since there’s little white strings/feeder tentacles.

Looking closer, yep, you are right, spaghetti worm

 

[Kmst80]

If you refer to this as spaghetti worm it is not. I got a spaghetti worm in my tank, this one looks similar To a bristle worm but has no bristles but kind of small feet on each side.
Anyhow nothing but the nudibranch went into the tank. Better safe than sorry.
