		The nemertines, or ribbon worms (phylum Nemertinea), are often colorful marine carnivores with an extensible proboscis.
		The sea mouse, the clam worm, and the feather duster worm belong to the latter group.
		Moth and butterfly larvae can be distinguished from adult animals called worms by the presence of several pairs of fleshy appendages at the rear end of the body (see caterpillar).

	Clam Worm
		Clam worms are ubiquitous in distribution, common in marine and estuarine waters along the West, East, and Gulf Coasts.
		Clam worms are segmented worms belonging to the class polychaeta, meaning "a number of bristles." Each body segment has a pair of small paddle-shaped appendages (parapodia), in which are embedded tiny hairs or bristles.
		Clam worms have four pairs of tentacles, one pair of antennae, and one pair of fleshy lobes (palps) on the head region.

		The fishes may learn not to attack the worms (although this will vary from fish to fish; my mature Premnas female either is a masochist or has intelligence measured in negative numbers as she continues to persist in attacking the worms) and such learning is likely good for years.
		The eunicid worms found in aquaria all have five antennae, with a large pronounced antennae arising from the center of the "forehead." Large eunicid worms from two distinct groups are found in aquaria.
		The number of these worms in such systems is quite large, and for the fireworms in particular, their numbers probably dwarf those of all other species the same size or larger in reef aquaria.

		Once worms have been spotted, and action has been taken to eliminate them, it is this fast rate of growth and reproduction that can be misleading if their successful removal from the tank is believed.
		One rule applies, to calm the nerves of the hobbyist; most worms seen outside the fish are usually not internal parasites and not considered as harmful to the fish.
		The fluke is a parasite worm that is visible on the skin or gills of the fish.

	Polychaete (aka "bristleworm") FAQ For Reefkeepers
		Swimming worms may be simply an individual that was displaced and swept away by the current, or it may be the reproductive stage (an epitoke) of one of the bottom-dwelling species (I'll discuss epitokes further in the QandA section at the bottom).
		Worms are confusing because most people are used to being able to identify animals by their shape; looking at a fish or a coral, it is obvious (despite the multitude of shapes and sizes) that they are all related in a single group, and small differences don't really affect our ability to recognize that group.
		The peanut worms are a funky group of blunt worms that tend to make their presence known by pushing a small cap of tentacles out of holes in live rock (they almost always arrive in holes or burrows in live rock).

	"Clam Worm Fundamentals" from Ken Abrames' Striper Moon: Articles Archive
		Fishing the clam worm hatch has been a learning curve for me. There are lots of different parts to it and they change depending on the locations you fish, the types of worms that are present, and the flies and methods you choose to fish the worm hatch with.
		Each location where worms swarm has its own unfolding rhythm and some are quite different than others as to time of day, sizes and types of worms, locations and activity of worms (how they move), how the fish feed on them and much more.
		When the water is moving, as in a tidal river, the fish do not swim to the worms to feed, they hold on station and wait for the current to bring the worms to their position.

		Nereis worms, commonly known as clam worms, are scavengers found in sediments along both coasts of North America.
		The researchers began by considering two possibilities: Either the worms are exposed to pollution containing the metals and concentrate the metals in their jaws to detoxify them, or the metals are metabolized from gravel in marine sediment to serve a function in the structure of the jaws.
		The team is continuing to study how chlorine fits into the jaw structure, as well as how the structure and function of zinc in clam worms compares to copper in bloodworms.
