I don't know what they are. You might watch them close and see if they begin to multiply out of control. Some types of shrimp will eat certain types of worms. If no one can id them, you may send a pic to
Wetwebmedia, Aquarium, Pond, Marine and Freshwater Fish, reef tanks, and Aquatics Information
If you do, be sure you give them every single tank parameter you have, and use proper grammar or they will put a dunce cap on you and sit you in the corner. They will know, however.
