My guess is a peanut worm. Wait until your tank has been dark for awhile and then take a peak at it with a flashlight. I found one in my tank. It's in a hole in a rock. It only streches out of the hole to feed when the lights are out. It never actually leaves the rock. They have white tentacles at one end. It also fills up its hole with what looks like poo about once a week. If it is what you have, they're harmless.

Well I'm no expert but have gotten a few good pics. I turn out all of the lights in the room and leave the tank light on. I also use a tripod at least a foot away from the aquarium. The tripod really helps with the blurriness. Also, it helps to use the macro setting if your camera has one.

well i'll try and see if i can find anything....but i looked at the pic of a peanut worm and it doesnt really look like it, not that they all look like that, but ion comparison, mine has longer tentacles...and it was a lot skinnier...prolly close to the this ll
