That is a bristle worm in the container. I would personally keep them since they're beneficial. The second is Cirratulids sp. and is also beneficial.
 
Most ppl say beneficial others say if they get large enough they will eat coral im planning to have a bunch of soft coral so I don't want that anyway to keep the population under control I don't over feed maybe a large enough cleanup crew will starve them for food? Also I have herd some wrasse and arrow crabs eat them?
