Hey just got home to find this worm in one of my rocks, I have not seen one of these before, but its pretty cool looking. It sure does not look like your standard bristle worm. Hope its not bad:

Hermodice Carunculata In Julian Sprungs invert book pg 143 under bristle worm.. hope that works the picture shows it eating the tissue on a gorgonian..

its not that big, I just cropped the heck out of the picture I would guess that its probably 5-6 mm across its body not including the legs.

Lourdes it does not really look like that, those have multiple spines coming out of each segment this looks like there is one, and they look almost too big to be spines (although I am not going to find out!!).
