thanks for that picture of the spaghetti worm it looks just like it to me maybe mine is a baby yet cause its clear i don't know

is that thing harmful?
do i need to do anything for it?

 

[reefrunner69]

Spaghetti worms are beneficial detrivores, a good member of the clean up crew. Most of the ones in my tank are clear/tranlucent or striped.
