Need ID Help...

I’ve spotted tiny “white worms” curling up in a half circle on the glass, and I have notice a small “cocoon-mountain-like thing” with tiny white hairs coming from the top of them. To be honest, it looks like a little white volcano, with small hairs sprouting out of the top of it (this was found on a piece of LR). What is this, and if I need to get rid of it how exactly do I do this?

This is what it looks like, although not this many... Should I just leave them be??

filter feeders, leave them alone.
