medusa worm

[tdellay]

I have a 55 gallon planted fresh water aquarium and I once saw in a fish store a worm. It was about a foot long and was sort of a purpleish color. The pet store called it a Medusa Worm. I've tried to find one, but all I seen to see are salt water feather dusters worms. So I was wondering if anybody can help me find the correct or scientfic name of thid eluvise worm

The only worm I have ever seen offered for sale for freshwater is the caecilian, which is actually an amphibian.caecilianscheck here
