Some kind of work? Good or bad?

Sorry for the blurry picture... Best my camera can do. Its pink in color, comes to a point, and has little arms sticking off of its sides. It kinda looks like the tail or something because at the base it seems to have 4 thicker arms. Is this good or bad to keep in the tank? Sorry, but this is the best picture I could get and I took about 10.

Wow...thanks, I shudda known. But the photo is too blurry to tell for sure. Maybe a nudibranch? That's a wild guess, though.

The picture is a little too blurry to do much with. My best guess is a polychaete (bristleworm) of some sort.

yes I ment worm, not work... sorry. I looked for him again but I guess he crawled back up into the rock so I couldnt try to get anymore pictures, but this is a drawing of what he looked like form the part I could see... Hope it helps. Is it something I should get out of the tank a.s.a.p. or something that probably wont hurt anything?

Heres another picture... Found 2 more in the tank today. I think they came form the Figi rock I got from a LFS awhile ago. The best way I can describe it is it looks like a caterpillar, and moves kinda like one too. Does anyone know a site that has pictures posted up of these kind of creatures that I can identify it from?

Thanks for the links... From the pictures on the 2nd link, this one is the closest looking. Almost exactly the same except the ones in my tank are completly pink. I have yet to see the head of these, but they like hiding out of sight.
