    Definitely will chop your finger off when grown to adult size, man! Just be careful with it!
    Just kidding, dude. I don't think it's a tube worm, although the body has all the looks of one, the mouth is what's weird.

    I'm going to tag along on this one. That thing looks freaky and I want to know what it is.
    Sorry about the joke!
