could you tell what it is?

I have posted a picture in my gallery and named it unknown for a good reason- I don't know what it is. If anyone knows please let me know so I can put its name with the photo. It looks and moves like a centipede (just not as full). It was pretty creepy looking in person. We have quite a few centipede's around our house so to see one underwater gave me the heebeejeebies (sp?). Thanks. The picture was taken at Firehouse on the North Shore (o'ahu).

Its a bearded fireworm (Hermidice carunculata) commonly known as a bristleworm.

It is considered dangerous marine life and should not be touched or handled.
