White worms

[jimmy 4]

I have these small white worms in my tank. They look like a bristol worm, but they are smalll and white. Anyone know what they are?

they look like the arm of a mini brittle star. They are too small to get a pic of.

I have them as well and if I could guess I think they might be Vermetid's before they build their tubes. But that is just a wild guess. I have always had them and they cause no problem.

thanks My angel fish seems to like them.

it sounds like small bristle worms. I find a number of them in the filter floss of the overflow of my aquapod.

Mine look different than by baby bristles.

I have some too. Mine look like a thin peice of nylon fishing line. I had a guy from my LFS stop by for a one time visit and said they were beneficial, same family as the spaghetti worm. SO.. If they look like that... its ok!
