Peanut Worm?

[kjoz]

Does anyone have a picture of a Peanut Worm? From a description (No picture) on the hitchiker forum, I think I saw one last night with the flashlight. Of course by the time I went for my camera, it had disappeared. It was a long tubular brown worm that retracted into itself (or so it appeared) when I caught it with the light. It was rubbery looking, brown, tubular,and about 5" long. Kind of startled me at first when it moved. The best part of reefkeeping is the late nights with my flashlight. I so many neat things then. Any help will be appreciated.

I have a so-so pic of a Peanut Worm unfortunately my Sites server has been extremely slow in the past few days so this might take a while to load:
I put it on another Site so this should load ok:

might also be a ribbon worm, which have about a bazillion different species. they have fluid filled bodies and can rapidly change shape and size.
