My 55gal Marine Tank is established and about 1.5 years old. Recently add live rock a few months ago and I just noticed last night two white bottom half and black top half tubular worms coming out of holes in my live rock. I've looked for pictures but can't seem to find any that look like these.

The picture is kind of blurry but it was taken in the dark and using a flashlight. This worm in the middle of the picture and is probably about 1 inch long. The bottom of the worm looks white/tan and the top is dark purple/blackish. They retreat into their hole when light is shined on them. They seemed to be reaching for other nutrients on the rock surface.

Could it be a Peanut Worm? I'll try to get better pictures tonight.
