Help ID worm

Found this today in my reef, no idea what it is. My first instinct was to yank it out, but it is so cool looking and I have never seen anything like it. It is currently held up in a rock. Do not have a nice camera here at home, just a point and shoot. Will be searching pics of this. Orangish body with red rings, with long hair like protrusions along its back across whole body and able to retract themselves. Overall length about two inches, hair like protrosions about 3/4'' long. Not a fire worm.
