Help Identifying Please?

I'm not sure what this little thing is. It's only out in the evening when lights are dim or later when it's full lights out. I took a quick video with my phone and used a light to make it show up. If you don't mind taking a look I'd love to figure out what it is to make sure it's something good. Thanks!

My first thought is Sipunculida...peanut worm.

Thanks. I'll look into that too. I was googling some more and am also wondering if they may be Terebellidae Spaghetti Worms?

Those usually have a ton of filament like tentacles out. I am guessing peanut as well.

Someone I know seems to think they may be digitata hydroids. Any experience with these? Removal, confirmation?
