I think I actually figured it out after a little more research. It appears to be a snail leech. A disturbing creature and I will need to make sure it doesn't have more spawn. It must have hitch-hiked on my plants, even though I washed them off.

A while ago I noticed a worm-like creature in my freshwater tank. I found it eerie looking, but it was on the side of my tank that was inaccessible for my aquatic creatures, so I figured it would not be an issue. Unfortunately, this creature or one of its ilk found its way to the other side of...
