It looks like a nest of worms?

[Anonymous]

I've looked around and haven't been able to identify this. Any love? Here's what I know about it from observation:

- it extends its tentacles out and moves them a little.
- it can relocate (it did shortly after i installed a 2nd powerhead, altering the current near it ... the creature(s)? moved to a different porus opening on the rock surface
- when it catches something it hauls it in to the "nest" ... ? i watched it eat a bit of junk that floated by.
- it is orangish/reddish/brownish.

sorry for the poor image quality

Spaghetti worm... great sandbed cleaners. Its a single worm under the substrate with lots of tentacles that reach out and grab any debris they can stick to... eventually the larger particles of sand will wind up near its hole.
