Couple of questions please...woke up to find 3 of these bristle ? worms cruising around my unlit tank. I'd just like to say I MAY NEVER STICK MY HAND IN MY TANK AGAIN.

2 of the worms looked like greyish-tannish nondescript bristle worms but this one looked different...is it a fire worm?

Second question - do I need to remove them somehow? They seem awfully...big.

Lastly, are these like roaches in that if I saw three that means there's 100 more that I can't see??
