I need help ID'ing this. I read in here were it might e a tube anemone but I think the tenticles are too long; they can reach almost a quater of the way acros my 6 foot tank!

Thanks in advance and sorry if I posted this in the wrong forum; just don't know were else to go.

Looks more like some sort of spaghetti worm, rather than an anemone.

Thanks Phil, just read the article and am starting to get convinced that this is what I have in my tank. I was worried that it was going to harm my inhabitants but the article reads otherwise.

Again, thanks for the assistance,

Luis

They usually come in as hitchickers on live rock. These are the only people I know that actually sell them on purpose.

Hitchhiker is right....one of the bennies I guest...If it was harmful though, a curse... Glad it's not.
