White Worm.

So I have these worms running all around. Mostly at night I turned the lights back on to take the video below. They are all different sizes and move or crawl at a decent pace.

First question is what are they?
Good or Bad?
How to get rid of them?

Thanks for any information.

Nematode or ribbon worms are fairly common hitchhikers. I believe Wrasses might eat them but when in doubt I toss it out....

Thanks, Yeah I would love to toss them except there are probably 1,000s counting the sump and display. Literally thousands.. ;Shifty

Wow!
Where do you think they came from?

Not really sure. But I know they are mass producing and going unchecked. I only have clowns and a couple of snails. Believe it or not I've seen them floating and wiggling in the water column now and then.
