I've searched for what seems like forever now. I have 2-3 worms (that I know of) that only come out during light off conditions. They look like a spionid worm except I only see 1 individual worm moving independently from others. The other night I was feeding my mushroom in the dark and let it close up around the pellet. When I checked back on the mushroom, I saw this milky looking white worm stretched out maybe 1.5 inches or so digging into my mushroom's mouth trying to pull the pellet out.
Last night after lights out, I put a bristle worm trap in the tank and set it on the rock where the mushrooms reside. After a couple minutes I noticed two of these thin (fishing line thin) reaching for the pellets in the middle of the bristle worm trap tube. I noticed they couldn't reach the pellets as I believe they always keep the other end of their body retracted in a hole. When you shine a light at them, they are LIGHTNING fast in retracting their full 1-1.5 inches back into the hole. Again, I don't think they are spionid worms due to the fact that they are singular and also there aren't any tubes in sight.
Pictures are out of the question as I can only lure them out in the dark. As for as appearance, they look smooth (no bristles) and have a black looking head.
Hoping someone can shed some light on what im dealing with here!
