not sure but I've seen them in my reef tank
I think it is some kind of Centipede or Millipede. but a water species of course. I was hopping some marine biologist would have some input.

Sorry but I don't think it is. The description of that species does not mention legs. ??? I photographed this one at West Point of Povo in the Turks & Caicos at about 40 to 45 feet in scattered coral, sand and rubble. It was 12 to 14 inches long! Smooth body segmented. DC is there a way to post the picture here with HTML?

Papa,
We have HTML turned off as it allows hackers in through a backdoor, and I cannot begint to tell you about how many hacker attacks we've had, many of them from an administrator of a competing board and some even from a well known woman photographer.
We can't risk it, but if you let me know where the photo is, I will see what I can do to make it appear.
Polychaetes don't always have legs, nor lateral bristles.
Here you go:
I understand! I know there are 9000 different of them critters in various configurations and a lot have not been recored! Maybe you never know? We have had three Mollusks named after a friend of mine, so I always keep an eye out!

Papa,
The html image was the same image location as the original one you posted, I just edited your later post and switched the url tags for img tags.
Your first photo was the largest.
If the link to the Nephtys hombergii is the worm photo you showed, then it is within the family of polychaete, and if this is one of the very few times I am right, I love it!
