Strange species

Webman · 08-20-2001, 03:45 PM

I have a very skinny, dark brown with yellow stripes creature living in my live rock. It looks like a snake or eel. It has not shown itself completely but I see part of it's body every now and then. Does anyone know what it could be? It's not a starfish.

Thanks

sounds like a bristle worm. I just asked Dr. Ron Shimek a similar question and he told me that there are many bristleworm colorations, including ones that have stripes.
