large black wormlike creature
This evening I found a black 2 feet long worm like creature in our race way. It is smooth and rubbery in appearance.It's head almost resembles that of a nudibranch. It is flat and flares out with a neon green pattern on it. I can not see any segments or bristles.I know it is about impossible to id without a picture so I will try to post one tomorrow.The closest thing I can say it resembles is a fresh water cecilian worm.
hmm, will wait to see the picture.

Yes that is exactly what is. Now I have to decide what to do with it.I read they are usaually small in aquariums so only scavange and prey on pod.But at this size snails are at risk and that is what it was eating when I caught it.Not sure if he killed it or scavanged it after it died.
Best to sell it to someone that wants a cool pet!!

That would be a nice pet to have in a small tank to display.
