Figured someone might have a clue, I believe it’s a bristle worm really wondering what type. Not wanting my fish to be in pain and I can not seem for the life of me to find any information online indicating if it’s harmful or not. Look forward to hopefully getting an answer!! Thanks!

I do not think thats a Bristle.
Do a google search and you will see why I say that.
Bristle's have bristle's and this one does not.
Or I just can't see them in this picture.

Yea the pictures doesn’t really show the arm like extensions (probably wrong word) on the sides. I’Ve had bristleworms before in my tank but these are just bigger but definitely not bloodworms. I live on the coast so I go net fishing for Hypsoblennius hentz blennies , Chasmodes bosquianus blennies and naked gobies my backyard has a dock and a little area where oysters are. They come in my net sometimes and did‘t know if I should try feeding them to my tangs/wrasse or not. Was also generally curious figured someone on here might know.
