I sucked this thing up from the seahorse tank today whilst cleaning. Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to save and photograph it, but here goes...maybe someone can recognize it by description:
It was a short, smooth, fleshy tube, about 1.5 inches long and maybe 1/4 inch in diameter. I found it in the sandbed, buried completely. Overall it was pale, grayish-white, but one one end the terminus was a little darker near the very tip...kind of a faded dark brown. On the OTHER end of the tube, near the terminus but not quite at the very tip, was a small red "splotch" about 1/4 inch in surface area. There were no other identifying features that I could see in the short time I was aware of it before it zoomed up the siphon tube. It didn't appear to move much, if at all.
My first guess is some hitchhiker cucumber, since it wasn't very motile. Any other guesses??
