It is syllidae a member of polychaeto family. Don’t welcome them in my tanks

better safe than sorry, good practice to remove regardless. Although bristleworms aren't shown to be harmful they also aren't shown to be hugely beneficial so regardless of the ID positive it is in your best interest to remove. Plus a lot of people think they are quite unsightly
