Worm id

these critters are extremely small I’ve included a picture of a copepod just for reference so you you can see how magnified the camera is
One thing I want to point out, those are legs like a centipede not bristles also looks to have filter feeding appendages around the head but I’ve seen them come out and eat on a pellet of fish food

Maybe dorvellidaes .

Sure looks like Polychaete - Dorvilleidae

One thing I could not find was weather these guys (dorcilleidae) would eat corals most all research suggests omnivorous and under microscope most looked gut loaded with algae have you heard weather or not they eat coral I get a bunch of them come off my coral in qt ever time I dip
