    Can anyone Id this guy. It's about five inches from tail to head, doesn't have large claws and seems to constantly stir the sand like it's looking for something.

    I had one for about 6 months till a heater failure in my FOWLR at my business. All I ever saw of it was the long tentacles. Never seemed to cause any harm though. Also, it quick kicking up sand after it got settled in and had it's burrow made.
