Hi, as the title suggests...any help confirming the type of worm this is?

About 20cm long.

Video attached.

Was another one about the same size but couldn't get him out.
 

Thanks, I think it's a bristleworm but just hoping to get someone else to confirm.

I had a few deaths a while ago that happened quickly and overnight and at one stage though it might be a fireworm. Ended up concluding it was decreasing oxygen overnight which I've addressed and have had no more deaths.

However, saw this big guy last night and got worried and thought I should double check.
 
I would agree with it being a regular bristle
