I hope someone will chime in who’s more knowledgeable but, yeah, it looks like an earthworm to me. Just…longer? Not a sewage worm, by chance?
This site may help you match it: https://www.trees.com/gardening-and-landscaping/types-of-earthworms
At first that’s what I thought…I found tubifex worms image online and thought that was it. I’ve also have a recording of one moving…it kinda glides like it has a lot of legs…but it’s so tiny, I can’t tell if it has legs.
Is it "gliding " in a wavy pattern, or in a straight line?
A wavy pattern, where it glides like that makes me think it's a threadsnake
Hmmm…I’ve seen it move more on the wavy side…reminds me of how a centipede moves.
