Is that fresh water or salt water?

Sk8man · Jan 14, 2005

fresh water. we put salt on this creature but it wasn't so scared of it.
we thought it was a kind of leech and tey are supposed to be afraid of salt.

No idea what it is but it looks cool. You should keep it as a pet and give it a name.

Nah, it's not a type of leech, this is an annelid worm--segmented.

Don't know what it is for sure though. Since it's so small, I'm guessing just some sort of underwater worm. Saltwater has hundreds of different types.
