It may be a bristle worm.

Looks like a bristle worm. Not harmful unless you touch it.

Yes. But you probably want to get rid of them. https://www.thesprucepets.com/bristleworms-what-are-they-2925119

Agree bristleworm and not welcomed in my tanks but considered a cleaning crew member. They eat detritus and uneaten food. If too much food leftover for them to eat, you will have many in no time Never handle with bare hands
