They looks kinda like flatworms... Are there fish in the tank, how much are you feeding?

If not worms, it looks like a bunch of poop. How often do you do water changes? Did you stir up the substrate?

 

[djv546]

There are no fish in the tank, just one crayfish. I feed it shrimp pallets every other day and a minow every other.

I do a 10% water change every week.

LookS like nematode worms, mine are going away.

Just feed less, that is it.

 

[Ozydego]

Agreed, try feeding the shrimp pellets less and see if the numbers start decreasing.

Yep, feed less and change more water. Do at least 25%, if not 50%. You have excess food that the planaria(assuming that's what it is) are feeding off. You can also scrape them off the glass and siphon them out to reduce the population.
