Hello I just noticed a bunch of white creatures that look like worms living on my Xenia, Hammer, and Mushroom frags. Anyone have any idea what this creature is? Should I be concerned? Thanks

May be be spirobids. Quite hard to verify as pics are both very fuzzy and blue in color
Pics Under white lights always best

Thanks for the reply. Sounds like those worms are harmless. Tank is only a few months old. I took another pic in white light too.
