Common name: Bonelliidae worms
Scientific name: Bonelliidae
The Bonelliidae family, commonly known as Bonelliidae worms or Bonellia worms, includes a group of marine echiuran worms. These worms are notable for their proboscis-like structure, which they use for feeding and burrowing. In the reef aquarium, they are rarely kept due to their specialized needs and potential size. However, they are fascinating creatures that can be beneficial detritivores, consuming decomposing organic matter and helping maintain substrate cleanliness.
