I went over to look at my tank tonight and saw a snake like creature in my live rock when I tried to take a picture of him he retracted into the live rock so in the photo I just have part of him.

Please take pic with bright white intensity as image shows nothing and I assume nothing until I see it

Peanut worms (Sipunculans), Bristleworms (Polychaetes), and Brittle/Serpent Stars (Ophiuroids) would be my first thoughts from the description-.

From the pic, I'm leaning toward a peanut worm like in the thread below:
