Pics aren’t very clear, but could be a soft coral eating nudibranch. Better pics would help to id.

Ended up dipping pretty aggressively and I THINK they were red planaria and i hopefully got rid of all of them

Red planaria it is and these can be a headache to say the least. I would not place the cloves or worms into tank but return them to where they came from
