I received some snails and put them in a 10 gallon QT tank. Started seeing some detritus worms and backed off on how much I was feeding the snails (Omega One green & red seaweed). Population of detritus worms has greatly reduced, but still have another type of worm I can’t ID. They are too small for my camera so I drew a picture (see below), LOL. And, they show no reaction to Praziquantel and Levamisole.

Dorvilleidae worm which feed primarily on algae and are not considered as a threat to the aquarium.
Good drawing !!
 
Woohoo! Thank you so much, I was reading all the ID posts and it can get kind of scary with all the dangerous types of worms out there, and I was scared to put the snails in my DT. Ha! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
