Planaria? No idea if I'm right? No idea if it's harmful/beneficial/harmless???

Flatworm. Hard to tell what kind, but I wouldn't risk it. Looks similar to a polyclad, which you don't want.

 

[rodster912000]

i think you may be right and looks like planaria are scavengers eating left over food. thanks capt

i pulled him out im just hopen he was the only one

Planaria are small. That is a type of polyclad flatworm. Pull out every one you see, and make sure you get it all. They can reproduce by fission.

definitely get him out! Ive seen them eat clams, snails, had one eat my prized blue maxima.

Definitely a Polyclad Flatworm.
