I am hoping someone can tell me what in tarnation is this thing?

I noticed it floating on the surface of my tank, wriggling around so I scooped it up and tried to take pictures and video, which only kinda sorta worked.

It's long and skinny, almost tubelike, but looks like it may have lots of legs, it's hard to tell, and wiggles around quickly. It can also swim, not just float. Never seen anything like it before. It's maybe 3/16" long.

If it matters, it was in my tank that only contains an eel, 3 nassarius, 2 nerite, 1 hermit crab and 1 brittle star.
