water worm?

I've lifted a wood today from my aquarium and I discovered a worm underneath it. it's not a fish dropping. it seems to be live and kicking. I've isolated it untill I'll discover what it is.
so... what is it?

Where did you acquire your wood?

from a local aqua shop
it cant possibly come from the wood... I've boiled it several times

What's the diet been like for this fish? Also, any new occupants in the tank, plant or animal(besides the driftwood)?

You'd need to get some detail on the Head and Tail to aid identification. Do you access to a good Magnifying Glass, or even a Microscope? Do some sketches and scan them in...

I got a bit of drift wood (sealed in plastic) and i found a wormy thing in it, it was about 3" long and was yellow/baige and had a dark brown head and 2 pincers and it was alive as i put it in the water after an hour i saw somthing moving, and it popped out!!! and started swimming and my goldfish went for it strait away so i had to grab it and throw it on the floor, the FS coulf not identafy it, its still with them!! freekyness!

I got some free drift wood though!
