Is this aiptasia? Also, mystery tentacles.

Found 2 interesting things on my live rock this evening. First, this looks like a small anemone, but doesn't quite match the other couple of aiptasias I've killed.

Secondly, I noticed some very thin tentacles protruding from the holes in the live rock. Any ideas? These are definitely live and moving around - moreso with increased flow across the area.

I just discovered one of those in my Fuge... It's a Spaghetti Worm... if you watch the tentacles... you'll see little bits of food moving along them...
