I had never seen a worm quite this color before. The body can be bright green, blue-green or brown, and the parapodia lobes light in color. They can be up to 100mm in length, so this was a very "small one". It lives in mucus tubes amongst algal frond or holdfast, or in mussel beds. (Thanks to Marlin Harms for the species ID, as I only knew the genus). Marlin found this beauty. Great day we had, Marlin.

These are known as 'The Thing'. Apparently it's very rare to see them in daytime (this was my first ever) - very reminiscent of the worms in Tremors - albeit underwater!
