I have little white worms swimming in my fuge, about 3/4 long, not much thicker than course thread.

Would that likely be juvi bristle worms?

Not likely. But without a pic, who knows.

Ok thanks. I'll try to get a pic today. Just thought maybe it was such a common thing a description would do.

I searched for images of juvinnile bristle worms, could not find a thing...

This worm is about 1/2" long. I put it in a green dish and used a clip on closeup attachment on my phone. Now I'm really thinking juvi bristle, how about you guys?

Yeah, that's a bristleworm of some variety - it may be a juvenile, or it may be an adult; the size varies greatly depending on the species.

They are swimming through the water in my fuge. I've never seen one in my display but I imagine they just get snapped up real quick.
