Are they spiral shaped? Probably featherduster worms. If you don't like them, scrape them off. I usually just clean them off my front glass.

Although I can't really see anything in your pics, I'm sure that's what they are. There is a great hitchhikers link at the top of the identification forum. This link will take you to the page that talks about featherworms. Scroll down about halfway. HTH

They are little worms. Nothing to worry about.

On the glass of my tank, I can see small, white coils that are about 2mm across and have tiny hairs sticking out. What are these guys?

This is probably yet another tube-dwelling polychaete from the Family Spirorbidae. It is yet another harmless filter-feeder that is common in reef aquaria. It is common for these worms to inhabit areas of high water flow, including your tank's plumbing. They readily reproduce via sexual means and often spread throughout the tank, and can generally be considered a sign of a healthy maturing tank.



Same thing. They don't always stay on the glass. They get on your rock, PH's, skimmer, etc. Still nothing to worry about.

There is another thread on here asking about getting rid of featherdusters. It was suggested using peppermint shrimp. Good luck.
