look in the hitchicker's thread on the top of this forum. they have some pics in there. of the thousands of species, only a few are preditory. so if you have them, let them live. they are a benificial part of yoru clean up crew.

Use the SEARCH feature and look on the hitchhikers thread under worms. Usually a pinkish color with rows of whitish bristle tufts going down each side. Ugly little things... but beneficial. They'll clean the detritus (extra food and stuff) at the bottom of the tank. I had a huge amount come in on some liverock, but just making sure I didn't overfeed thinned out the population. Don't touch them- the spikey bristles hurt.
