This is a pic of some weird thing in my tank - I don't know if the hitchiker forum gets as much traffic so take a look at that thread.. it's driving me crazy - I don't know what this is and it's not listed in any of the FAQs.

Spaghetti worms. They'll conveniently sweep all the crud within arm's reach into a nice little pile for you.

Ditto. A spaghetti worm. Good guys.

Actually, they are in the HHFAQ, on the sand critters page.

Concur, spaghetti (damn, can never spell it right...) worms. Very good for you tanks.

However, if you find them disgusting to look at, send in a pair of small sand goby to help keep them under controll. Please note the word "SMALL" as you do not want to totally wipe out the population of the worms.
