I HAVE SEEN 2 THINGS IN MY TANK. 1 IS A ZEBRA LIKE BLACK AND WHITE STRIPED WORM. THE OTHER IS A PLAIN WHITE CRAB BUT ITS NEVER FULLY IN VEIW AND APPROX THE SIZE OF A QUATER. i THOUGHT IT COULD BE A PORCALAIN CRAB BUT IS UNLIKLEY.

Without photos yet we'd be making wild guesses.

I have to agree. Without pics it is just a guessing game.

Denzil · Oct 4, 2007

I can't see there being many stipped worms knocking around shurly some1 must know?

Reefscape · Oct 4, 2007

Its not something that should be guessed at, hence why people have mentioned the need for pictures..

Denzil · Oct 4, 2007

so how many black and white stripped worms do you know of?

reavesinc · Oct 4, 2007

The black and white worm is probably a peanut worm which will be hard to get a pic of. Does it look like this?

If so, they are reef safe.

Grins · Oct 4, 2007

It could be a peanut worm...but it could also be the arm of a brittle star. Our guesses are only going to be guesses without a photo.

The op could always Google peanut worm and spaghetti worm. I do think it does sound more like a brittle star 'arm' though.

Denzil · Oct 5, 2007

There are no spikes on it. It is the same as the picture reavesinc posted. And it is near imposible to get a picture of it. Now everyone is clear on what it is thanks to reavesinc hows about some info on the critter!
