We propose a model for a chain vibrating in 3 dimensions (3D), with first neighbors anharmonic interatomic potential which depends  on their distance, and subjected to an external tension.In the framework of the non-linear fluctuating hydrodynamic theory (NLFHT), that was successfully applied to 1D chains, we obtain a heat mode, two longitudinal and four transverse sound modes. We compute their spatio-temporal correlations comparing the theoretical results with molecular dynamics simulations, finding a good agreement for high temperatures. We find that the transverse sound modes behave diffusively, meanwhile the heat and longitudinal sound modes superdiffusively, exploring their possible scaling functions and characteristic exponents.
