I caught one in my tank, but I got him out long before he was 4' long. Loosely referred to as Eunicid sp. worms.

Thanks for posting, crazy to think what can come in our rock!

Not sure if I agree with this statement though;

The tropical worm is capable of inflicting permanent numbness on humans with its sting.
I have been stung by countless bristleworms, numbness yes, permanent... not so much.
