Most of them were in the sand bed and a lot of them were attached to the rocks that my corals are on.

Hard to tell on my phone screen but based on description and behavior, sounds like a
calcareous tubeworm, fan worm also called plume worm or red tube worm which is a species of marine polychaete worm in the family Of Serpulidaes.

I googled it, that’s not it.

Best way to get an id...put one of the worms themselves in a clear container with water and take a pic.
