I found this little guy in my tank. Kind of looks like a snake or an eel. Can anyone help? He is about 3 and a half inches. Thanks

No, I just looked up dragonet pictures and it's not it :(. It has a really small mouth that is circular is it helps any
 
lol yah I was definitely going to say pipefish, what a neat hitchhiker!! Is it swimming?

Looks like some sort of dragon face pipefish, my LFS has them in sometimes. They tend to stay near the bottom and not swim around a lot. Try feeding it some cyclopeeze, that is how I got my pipefish eating frozen foods :) He now eats anything I put in.
