Hey everyone. Found those worms yesterday and took them out. Are they reef save?

Worm ID?

I can't see the bristles or any tentacles on the heads in the video - do they have tentacles on their heads, and if so how many? Are their bristles like normal bristleworm bristles, or are they long and thread-like?

Either way, from what I can see, they're probably either Syllid or Dorvilleid worms, which should be harmless.
