It sounds like a peanut worm to me.

Has it got a face like this? Might it only be eating detrius in the zoos or do you see it munching on healthy flesh? |

Yeah, it's probably only eating the dead ones, I have never heard of them attacking live corals. If you're really worried you can move the frag but the rest of your CUC will probably eat any more dead ones.
It's funny the little aliens that live in our tanks... |

well instead of making a new thread i have been trying to get a photo of this bugger for a while. lives in a totally different rock and finally caught it pulling some flake food into the rock. i think it might be a bristle worm
