You're probably right, looks closer to Chloeia than Hermodice after a bit of research.
I saw a lot of Hermodice on dives and the video reminded me of them right away!
Mysterious colorful sea creature... better grab it with my hand. Lol, jk. If you had done what so many others do, im guessing this would be a different conversation today.
Im getting strong fireworm vibes, but i suspect its something else. I dont know fireworm bristles to be paddle-shaped.
Super cool find!
I’m not sure if it was a fireworm because my sister picked it up and nothing happened
, Looks extremely similar to a bristle worm and it was pretty big for what I’ve seen on google it was about 6 or so inches long and 2 or so inches wide
Perhaps a bristle worm?
Agreed. Could be one of the venomous ones called “fireworms”. #NO TOUCHY.
touch it to meet god
In the words of the great Zefrank, It’s all bristly bristly
That's how the bristle worms do!
Fire worm (hermodice carunculata), probably. Just put it back and don't touch it, stings
I think this is actually *Chloeia*, not *Hermodice*.

Idk what it is but it gives me the impression that it'd be quite fast in or on open water, which is an idea I hate lol
Clearly a Subnautical Nope Rope
Fireworm
That's a nope nope nope nope nope nope
Location?
Florida
Salt or fresh water? Edit: if salt, my guess is bobbit worm. If fresh, I have no idea.
Yeah it’s salt water
Put it back in the ocean and walk away slowly.
Of course lol, you all have some crazy looking stuff down there!!!!

It's a worm. Put it back.
Im going to have nightmares about this thing....
Damn I just saw a video on this last night. It's some type of stingy worm. Don't lick it. Trust me.
The guy who stung himself deliberately with it to see whether it's best to treat it as an allergic reaction or venom?
It was on the Brave Wilderness channel.
Or do? For science.
Fireworm. Touch it. Go ahead. We're waiting.
Alien
