Are these some sort of worms?

Any ideas on what these are? I've posted pics of them in the past, but it was after I took them out of the tank and no one knew what they were. These pics are in my QT tank, which is pretty gross at the moment, I'm about to take it down.

They are crawling very slowly along the glass.

Spaghetti worms

I use to have a bunch in my tank when I had a DSB. The would bury themselves in the sand and only their tentacles would stick out.

They are about the sixth one down on that link demonsp gave, under Cirratulids.
