Is this a bristle worm should I watch out for these or will my coral banded shrimp take them out on his own, I searched it up and they’re good for tanks but can overrun them I should be okay right ?

That would not concern me.
Bristleworm's may become invasive in tanks that over feed. There has to be an available food source such as uneaten fish food.

I personally like them . However I just read and it makes sense if you don't feed them enough they will find it on their own and attack snails ect . I don't know . Its like anything if the food source is depleted ,except they cant go anywhere. I wonder if they are cannibalistic frogs are

Okay thanks for the answers I’ll just keep the same routine going that’s my first time seeing one I only feed once a day and only what they eat, I only have a lawnmower,engineer, and a coral banded with a cleanup crew

I have them in every tank and they have never been a problem.
