They're not bristle worms or flat worms. The "tentacles" radiate from one
central spot like an octopus's arms and literally reach out and wrap around
anything that comes near them and pulls it back to the rock. If you are
into FW aquariums, the color and look is like a mass a blood worms
squirming. It is giving me (and hubby) the creeps!

One more thing, DO NOT TOUCH THEM with you bare hands. They have tiny
bristles (hence the name bristle worm) and lodge them into your skin which
I hear hurts like a mother......
