Hello all! I have had my tank for over a year now, but I have only seen these little worms pop up in the last month. Can someone ID it for me? Also, I think it eats algae because I can see its mouthparts working away when it comes across some algae on my tank glass.

Also don't berate me for this but I have fed smaller of these worms to my lps. They ate them pretty quickly.

The worm in question!
