The Australian purple worm (Eunice aphroditois) is the most unusual member of the ringworm type. This worm can reach a length of 3 meters. Most of the time this animal spends burrowing in the sand, waiting for fish that swim by. Strong jaws and strong muscles make this worm a very dangerous predator.

Some people manage to keep it in the aquarium. Although often in aquariums it is random, being a subtle larva. About the uninvited guest owners of the aquarium learn only when the fish begin to disappear.
