    yeah sorry guys it is a tad blurry hmm well its very long around the 5 inch mark and it has a flat head.. with a thin white banned over its head. i was thinking it could of been some sort of flat worm. as gross as it may seem picture a tap worm make and make it black thats what my first impression was.

    Very fuzzy pic, but from the general shape, the color, and the band around its head I'd say peanut worm maybe.

    Flat worms are much smaller and truly flat. Some type of peanut worm could be it.
