Worm ID

[Pootie]

well i was cleaning my tank the other day , and noticed a worm on my rock. ( at least i thinkk it's a worm , lol)

it looks like a grub sorta. i can't explain . It has since been in the same spot for a few days , with no signs of decay ( leads me to believe that it is still alive)


sorry for the sucky pix.

with flash , figures it would get a lil more of it's color,, i was wrong. lol

Hard To Tell But Might Be A Peanut Worm

Probably a peanut worm. Does it's mouth look like a mini feather duster?

i can't see it's mouth really,, looks like it has 2 segments.. the head (or what looks like the head) .. is dark and almost black in color.. and the body is like a Olive color.. it hasn't moved, or tried to move in quite some time.. I donno.. i'm thinking take it out and nuke it to be on the safe side.

i searched Peanut work, and all the images that came up didn't really look like what i got..if it wasn't under water i'd think it was a catapillar!

whatever it was it died, or something came out of it .. Because it looks hollow now, i can see into it!

Ive looked at this picture many times and just realized what it was in the picture you were talking about. Now my question is... what is the red thing in the backround, which is what I thought you were referring to in the first place? Someone said penut worm and I said to myself "thats not a penut worm!" But I was looking at the wrong thing... lol
