Red bug but not sure what.

Found this thing blowing around in my tank after a water change while lights out. Anybody know what it is? Didn't look like a bristleworm.

it looks to be the reproductive form of a polychaete worm, known as an epitoke, i would not be concerned, let it swim and enjoy its short lifespan. the main body of the worm lives somewhere else in the tank.
