Anyone know what these might be? I haven’t added anything to my system in a few weeks and afaik, I did not see any of these the last time I looked in my sump during maintenance last week. As of right now I see about 10 of these worms crawling on the glass. None I’m the display that I can see

Looks like detritus worms which eat what the sump offers- uneaten food and detritus
Increase siphoning and reduce feeding- the reason they’re surviving

Thanks guys, I don’t have too many corals in there so I was ready to burn it down . I’ll slow down on the feeding, I feed my own frozen raw mix and I’m still adjusting to using it. I have noticed some larger portions of it in my sump. Previously I was feeding pellets with a feed mode that always got eaten up before the feed mode ends
