    thanks Ric

    These worms are known coral eaters and will often take out small fish. They are lightning fast. They always have 5 tentacles on their head.

    To give you an idea of how big they can get, check out Steve's eunicid. Oregonreef.com

    No, it's Steve from Oregon :) I don't believe he's a member of this site but his "tale of the worm" gets passed around quite a bit. That thing is nasty!
