I have tons of these in my 265 gallon aquarium. They are pretty small, about an inch in length. I see more of them at night than any other time.

Thats them, neat little guys but dont touch them, that is annoying trying to get all the tiny hairs out of your fingers.

Actually that's a little Nereid worm. Harmless.

Is that basically a bristle worm? Just diffrent species?

Yes, a species of polychaete worm.

Cool, was worried, never seen them in any of my systems.
