No...not really.Before he left (I think two days earlier before I posted this)some one at the lfs said it was a sea snake. He (or me)knew what a sea snake was,but didn't think it was one.But,it may actually be one.It seems to not cooperate with eating the feeders (he only feeds them as treats) when he feeds them to his lionfish. Remember this was all before I posted this topic. It also seems to hang around on the bottom and on the live rock.

He also had some reef chromis (six I think) and now he only has two. Remember this was all before I posted this topic. It also seems to hang around on the bottom and on the live rock.

Hmmm..... Sea Snakes have to surface to breath air, if it never goes to the surface it cannot be a sea snake. Be careful, those things can be deadly even if it is tiny. If it bites you it wouldn't be painful but really harmless like a lion fish sting, a sea snake bite can kill you very fast and it's unlikely your local hospital would have anti venom for one. It really sounds like a small eel or elongated fish of some kind.

It looks like those fish.
 
actually,now im confused.It looks like that fish.I am colorblind too some degree,so identification is hard.But that wolf eel looks like it.
 
maybe a very very tiny pipe fish that hitch hiked =D? dunno just a guese, while looking in LFS i saw pipe fish neat the live rock in the tank swiming under it kinda. If so then u wud have got a FREEBIE! YAY! =^_^=
