Just look at the images. Is it good or is it bad. Should I remove it. I found it while cycling so there are no fish in there.

reg=regular, or =rag such as in the bristleworm family?

Hard to tell from the pic, might be a peanut worm. Harmless, I wouldn't worry too much about worms. Most do more good than harm.

Yup, harmless..and probably good to have to aerate the sand bed.
