Never seen this before

I found this weird looking thing in my tank today and I was wondering if it was good bad? Do I need to remove it? I've never seen it and I really don't know what to do.

It's a harmless filter feeder. A feather duster. No worries.

Cool didn't know if it was some sort of worm or what not. Feather duster is cool with me!

It is a worm. It makes a calcium based tube and lives in it it's whole life. It filters the water with that plume sticking out for tiny particulate matter. Pretty neat creature.

Yeah I've seen the very colorful ones at the lfs so free one for me!
