good/ bad?

The two tone has me wondering either way

Too late now anyway- it’s long gone, but interested for future reference
Varies by person. Some love them some hate them. Personally I believe they're a great clean up crew member that doesnt hurt anything :)

WEll that sucks- I was under the impression that red bristleworms were bad. I erred on the side of caution

Now I feel bad
That's ok. Where there is one, there is more ;)

I tried searching but not sure what these are. They are throughout the rear chambers of my AIO. Don't see any in the display.
