Hello all I see a worm like creature in my tank and it doesn't look like a bristle worm I was wondering if its maybe a dreaded flatworm?

Also I see some white little critters on my torches was wondering what these guys are as well. Any help is appreciated.

I can’t see the worms, but the white dots on the torch skeleton are spirorbid worms. They are harmless filter feeders, but they multiply like crazy.
Thank you the worm is this guy I can try and get a better picture when he comes out again though! My photography skills suck haha....
