Spotting

Description:

This appeared to be full grown. Tiny spikes ran the length of its sides.

Habitat:

Salt water aquarium.

Notes:

It was found dead, among a few much smaller individuals found on the substrate of my aquarium after it was drained of water and exposed to near freezing temperatures outside over the course of 8 hours. 11/29/14 Found another, alive and I assume it's the same as the dead specimen.

The best guess I have come up with is a bristle worm.

That's really a strange animal. Like some sort of water centipede or something. But pretty cool.
