Bobbitt worm?

[Reefinny]

Any idea? Thought it was a bristle worm at first but it's almost black and a funky head.

The thing scared the you know what out of me when I pulled up the rock! It DID not go back in the tank.

Does anybody know the reproduction capabilities of these things? Should I be concerned there are more?

i dont know specifically about the bobbit worm but i posted a while back and had a bad infestation of bristle worms.... i mean huge and all over !!! They would reproduce fast as i feed a lot to keep my angels from picking at corals... They got out of control...
That Blue Spiny lobster i added, decimated them!!!
Not sure if that helps any...

Finny, I had one in my tank that was slightly bigger than the one you had. it essentially wiped out my tank. found him and got him out last march (?) My tank sat idle until december, and i dont see any signs of evil bobbit babies or coral and fish missing now that im re-established for a few months now.
