wittle bitty worm...YIKES!!!!!!

I have like a million of these guys in my sand bed. Most of the ones that I can see are against the glass and they have been doing the naughty non-stop for ages now. My lights turned off tonight before I could do my feeding so I flipped them on after 15 minutes of being off. There were about 50-75 of these guys on my glass. Any ideas on what they actually are? I'm not convinced that they are bristle worms.

They look like bristles on the glass but not in the sand? And they have no color unlike bristles which are pinkish? Hmmmm I'm 50/50 on this.... I want to see what others have to say.

Well what ever is on the glass is in the sand because I watched a couple of them sliver down into the sand bed and they looked like every other squiggly line in the sand bed. Should I be concerned with the quantity of them in my tank? I know that they are good for the sand bed but they are everywhere. IIRC, I believe that they may have had a pinkish hue to them. It may not have some out well in the photos.

The worms in the sand and the worms on the glass shouldnt be related. Both are beneficial though IMO.
