I shined my flashlight on my tank at night and seen these weird worms that burrow in sand when I shine the light on them. In the video one was swimming... well wiggling and at the end one was burrowed. Does anyone know if these things are dangerous?

There is no video or pictures to see .
Sometimes videos uploaded here won’t work and have to upload from YouTube
If you can get a decent picture with whote
Lights ( no blue ) it’s sometimes easier to identify

Pics under white lighting will be very helpful. Can be detritus, bristle and others

Hard to see but it may be peanut worm or bristleworm. If they look like below, bristleworm
