I need help with this one... about 1" long... EXTREMELY FAST... swimming all through the tank... I don't know if this is a baby eel or what the hell it is, I just saw it for the first time tonight, and it's zipping all over the place.... I have a terrible phone video of it if anybody can help id this

I'm going to try and trap it so I can get some more pics

Update: I caught the bastard (actually he caught himself and swam into the cup... here's a better video... it's actually red... possibly a bristle worm... but I didn't think they actually SWAM like this

    that looks pretty similar to 'em marc, do you know if they're bad for the tank or are they ok in case I see anymore?

    It shouldn't be bad for the tank, but your images were a bit blurry. One thing I'll say - that was a huge knife! hehe
