Found these little guys on a night dive off Santa Rosa last week, about 35' of water lurking around the rocks. I though it was some kind of worm at first based on the way it moved, but when I got a closer look I thought maybe a larval eel or something? They seemed to have heads and eyes at one end... Only about an inch or two long.

Couple of pics:

And a quick video so you can see how it moves:

Thanks!
