Worm ID

Just before leaving for work I spotted this guy crawling under some chaeto. Any help would be great. I won't be able to respond while at work.

Yeah I'm pretty positive it is I'm just curious if it's a bad type.

IMO, take any large size worm. Being small is okay.

It wasn't really big maybe 2 inches long but it was out at full power lighting.

Common bristle worm, and a fine member of your cleanup crew.

Don't try to pet 'em, though - the bristles are like fiberglass insulation.

Thanks my boy thinks it's really cool and my wife doesn't want to stick her hands in the tank now.
