Unknown critter
So I hope you guys can help me out, I found this unknown critter, dont know if its bad or just fine.
I do not have a picture of it. The unknown critter has a shell over it and the shell is connected to a rock. The shell I would say worm shaped and about 3/8" wide Some sort of worm or slug sticks it head out every now and then, I can see that it has 2 antenna, and it seems to constantly be excreting a very thin slime string, looks like a slimy fishing line. If anyone has an idea of what it could be or if its no bueno or its not going to hurt anything. Thanks

Re: Unknown critter
Holly this is a salt tank, Do a search for tube worm that might be it.

Re: Unknown critter
Yes, it is saltwater. I looked around tubeworms and didn't see any similar, what I have has no feathers. When I get near it, it backs into its shell, when it does it has a little door its closes behind it, like a snail.
Maybe I can get a pic soon Thanks
