excerpt taken from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sipuncula

The most recognizable part of Sipunculan worms is their mouth, which is surrounded by a mass of 18 - 24 tentacles, all of which may be inverted into the body.

Tough to say without seeing the mouth...
There are many different species of this worm though, so one being more motile than another is definitely possible.

I have peanut worms also. I have seen one worm very much like this only once going from hole to hole, I am not convinced that it was a peanut worm either. It could be though. Now that I have a macro lens for my camera if I see it again I will be taking a pic of it.
