Exclamation WHOA! Something very strange came out of the LR!

I was looking at the Live Rock just now because I thought there was some kind of silver hair on it. A closer look revealed it to be an inch long SILVER-ish worm that was segmented like a millipede. It was very thin and had a weird head on the end that looked a little like tentacles. This didn't look like your typical peanut worm.

And also, this thing moved pretty fast! It didn't slither slow like a bristleworm, and didn't retract quick like a tentacle. But it made a beeline back to the hole it came out of. I will try to get a pic if I see it again, but it took off before I got the camera out. It was feeding on some algae before it took off and went back into the hole.

(I noticed the slime algae on the top of the rock has greatly decreased lately... maybe that's why?)
