As mentioned, spaghetti worm. They are harmless, though they can build up little piles of detritus on your rock work (they basically fill a little crevice with detritus that they catch and kind of make a home of it), so if you seem them on your rockwork, blow them off periodically with a turkey blaster so that they don’t become nitrate factories.
