I need some advise/help PLEASE. I've figured out that my reef aquarium has "Dorvilleidae Worms". I've searched and searched to see if they will harm my coral. Does anyone know or have any experience with them? I know they are NOT Bristle worms. (Been there, done that) I'll try to attach a pic and short video my kids did. Any advise, thoughts, opinions will be greatly appreciated! :) P.S. Video didn't upload

These are cousins to Bristleworm and almost exclusively eat algae. Considered reef safe and a member of classification of clean up crew
