I did noticed some white worms on my glass recently. Have added a good amount of Copepods that that in my mind maby was populate but when i zoom in i see small worms feeding on the algae on the glass. Anyone who has experienced this worms before and are they problems? Or good guys? Have a Sixline wrasse and a Mystery Wrasse but don’t seem like they going on the glass and eat them.

Attached a video and a photo.

Thanks for the answers!

Going to need a better picture. A wild guess might be dorvillidae or planaria/flatworms or maybe even some copepod (but I've never seen a copepod explosion of this magnitude).

@ISpeakForTheSeas might have an idea.

This is the best I got. They are so small that it’s almost impossible to get a closer shot without Macro equipment.

Need a better picture. I've used either a magnifying lens or a jeweler's loupe with my phone and was able to get closeups.
