What microorganism looks like a fast moving snake about 1mm long and 10 um wide?

Asked by LuckyGuy (43724points) April 16th, 2013

I was looking for tardigrades in some water from soaked moss and saw several fast moving snake-like animals. They were thin, maybe 10 um, and long, maybe 1mm. I could not detect any segmentation. They pushed the slow moving, 100 um tardigrades aside like they were stones. What are they?
Can someone point me in the right direction?
