It could be Planaria. They are harmless, and are generally caused by overfeeding...

Hello and welcome to the forums. The people here are really nice and helpful, you'll learn a lot from them no matter what your experience level is.

As for your question what to the worms look like, how big are they?
What is your feeding schedule for the tank and what is your water change schedule? I had a break out of worms in my tank and got them under control a few days ago so, if they're the same ones I can help you out.
