So was this thing doing any damage to your coral or just your clean up crew? I caught a small one eating my snails, but I thought it might be eating some of my zoas too.

How long do you think it was in your tank for to grow to that size?
hard to say. but my tank is not that old. a little over 1 years old.

just got done cycling my first reef tank. I will now always fear having any worms in my tank haha.
well if you used live rock. for sure you will have bristle worms
but those are good.

Well eucinid worms are an invasive species so they grow quick....probably only took em a few months to get that size
