What the heck is this weird thing??

Just removed an LTA from my tank and found a very tiny thing moving right under it. Pulled it into a QT until ID. It looks like a baby anemone??

Let me know if the link is not accessible, sometimes google does its thing.

Probably either a spaghetti worm (Terebellidae sp.) or a Cirratulid sp. Either way, cool member of the sandbed and/or clean up crew.
