I've seen these in his tank and I would struggle to say spaghetti worm. It's a fixed cluster of arms that seem to all center around on "ball" area just under the sand. He's right that the picture doesn't do it justice because there are a lot of arms there.

So that's my guess and I'm sticking with it for now!

There was a time you could actually buy these as sand dweeling janitors since they are pretty good at catching stray bits of food and detritus.

Haha...so I did!!!

My concept of a spaghetti worm was more like a traditional worm. I have them, but I've never seen more than 1 or 2 arms out near any one spot.
