Correct

From the short time that the fish looks sick, to being dead, And the looks of the body's after, I'm pretty sure it's marine velvet. At this point there's nothing I can do now but wait until the parasite starves itself out. I just hope that everyone else who reads this is more cautious than I was when they purchase their next tank inhabitant.

So I'm confused lol can or can they not cause MV? I've read they could or at least carry it in the goo that sits on the sand, but have also read its bologna lol. :S

I'm assuming that the water that was inside the worms tube had enough parasite to start multiplying and cause the outbreak

Wow scary... So is there such a thing as quarantining or treating inverts/corals/clams in qt before adding them to your tank if there is risk of them carrying MV or Marine Ich?? Or do people just quarantine fish for the most part
