White worm ID

[CristinaNTimothy]

Hello everyone

I found a few worms in my filter socks this morning. Never seen these before but Could someone please help me out with an ID on this white worm. They look like a squirming worm with just observation but magnified you clearly see legs.

After some searching the closest I could come up with would be detritus worms…

Would this be correct? And if so I’m assuming they would be harmless.

Thank you

Looks more like amphipod which are harmless

awesome thanks, I did think that originally but the body looks slender, worm like but under magnification I do see a difference.

Thank you
