Spaghetti Worms [Terebellidae]

Description

Terebellidae, commonly known as spaghetti worms, are a family of marine polychaete worms. They are characterized by their long, slender, tentacle-like protrusions which they use to gather food particles from the sediment. These worms are often found in burrows or tubes made from mud or sand, and their bodies are segmented, typically with a soft, pliable texture. Members of the Terebellidae family are detritivores, feeding on organic particles they collect from the substrate with their tentacles.
