Looks like a common bristle worm. They are a good part of your clean up crew.
I would keep it unless it's actually causing your tank any sort of problems.

Some things to look for when identifying GOOD bristle worms:

Evenly spaced bristle tufts along the sides of the worm.

Brightly hued white bristles.

Can have a colorful body or have a dull gray hue.
 
Hard to tell from the pic!
 
Here is a better one

Okay perfect cuz there's also lots of copepods on the rocks set the worms are in. When I said my corals they were everywhere
 
Thank you for all your help!!
