sorry cant get a good picture and cant find this creature on any sites. it has to long eyes that keep looking all around and to long antenna under its eyes it only pops its eyes and antenna out from the hole in a rock. the hole is close to dime size and the creature fills the hole up. please help, thanks.

sounds like it could be a few hundred different things. Can't identify positively without a pic!
