transparent shell with wormy thing inside
 

There's a transparent jelly type substance/shell (shape of a long bean) that
I can see what appears to be a worm growing inside it attached to some live
rock. Has anybody any idea what it might be and should I be evicting it from
my tank? I've uploaded an albeit blurred image to:

Yea, just a little bit blurred :-) hehe

You probably don't need to evict it, but it's just too
hard to tell with the picture. Maybe you could describe it
some more.

Looks like a spaghetti worm that has laid eggs. The jelly
eggs will remain for a little while, and then fall apart.

Got a better picture than B4 ;-) ....well a little lol....that I've called
1cm worm in Jelly on the same site!
It's a peachy colour about 1 cm long and 1mm diameter encased in a clear
jelly like substance.
I can only assume it's appeared out of the live rock like the sponges,
snails and tiny starfish did. I suppose it could be anything at the mo' so
if U've no idea what I could look up I'll see if it makes anything. If it
does I'll post a pic.
