Worm ID?

[Zoa_Fanatic]

Hello everyone. A few days ago I was feeding my candy cane coral (a very small head) when a worm came out the rock and snatched a piece of food. I didn’t get a good look at the worm and it pulled the food back into a hole very, very fast. On previous days I have seen a small clear worm, very thin, try to take food from the corals but it does not appear to be this fast. Anyway I Fw dipped the rock this occurred on. I have nearly killed me candy canes. Many bristle worms came out in the Fw and tons of pods but I didnt see this thing come out. Does anyone know what this could be and if it’s a bad thing? Have no had any fish or inverts dissapear. Tank is 6+ years old. Have not added any rock for 4+ years. Only recent addition was a candy cane head with two pollops that wasn’t on a plug they just cut it from the mother coral. Should I be scared of bobbits? Only fish are a 2ft engineer goby and a 2-4” four stripe damsel. Many many snails. Tank is a biocube 32 gallon. Recently moved to this from a nanocube 29 gallon. Never lost any fish or inverts to predation.

No I’m sorry. It was so fast I barely saw it I just saw the pellet dissapear. It may not have even been a worm but it got sucked backwards all of a sudden. I just assumed that’s what it was. I’ve dipped the rock twice now for a total of about 20 minutes. But didn’t see anything but bristle worms and huge pods come out.
