Something New In My Tank

[lov2play]

I started my 120gallon tank 1 1/2 yr ago, just last week i noticed alot of little pinkesh, fuzzy worms. I have been on this computer for ever trying to figure out what they are and if i to worry about my reef. So far they don't seem to be harmful, they stay on and in my rocks, but there's alot of them. My biggest fear is that they are a parasite. They dont seem to do anything. If anyone can tell me what they are and if I need to figure a way to get ride of them and how??? that would be great.....Jen

Possibly some type of feather duster

If it moves its a bristle worm, if its got a white body as such its a tube worm or as callell said a feather duster.

Search for the term Bristle Worm. Bristle worms arnt harmful, and are not a parasite, they are actually beneficial because the consume wastes and left over food. Dont touch them with bare hands, they aint called Bristle Worms for nothing! If thats not it, you can try and use Melev's Reef ID pages to see if you cant match it to something similar.
