giant worm ID wanted!!!!

okay, I have no idea if this is some kind of polycheat worm or what but it is about 12" long and has most likely been the coulpret for eating my small fish in the frag tank....
it is purpleish/brown with 2 rows of feathery gills, 5 large "antenae", 2 fat lips on its mouth, forked tail with 2 antenae and a greenish/tan ring around its "neck"

Did I ever tell you about the time Brasky went hunting? Well anyway, Brasky decides he's gonna hunt down all four members of the Banana Splits. He stalks and kills every one of them with a machete. They all beg for their lives, except Fleagul.
