Hi,

These started growing in my HOB CPR fuge. So far, they are about 1-3mm length.

I cannot tell for sure if they are:
Polychaete - Dorvilleidae

Checking if they are harmful and what do to do if they multiply.

I am going to seed the sand bed with tisbe pods, don’t want the worms wiping out the tisbe if
that is possible or not.

Thanks

Hard to tell from the algae on your glass, it could be a common bristle worm or perhaps a dorvilleidae
