Patrick's Tumblog

I had these gross eel-like things in my fishtank when I was a kid, and I’ve told stories about their general creepy-ness many times growing up. For the longest time, though, I just couldn’t remember what they were called. They looked sort of like elephant trunks that wriggled through the water.

I am no longer confused! They were Caecilian Worms. This page describes them to a T, including their tendency to escape from their fishtanks.
