Peanut worms are not bad - I'm not 100% sure on that ID though let a few others answer before taking action

I don't think it is a peanut worm but I don't have any idea what it is. Here's a bumb so hopefully someone who knows will stop by.
The first one is definitely an asterina star.

Re: help ID these??

oo! i have one of those wormy things too! it's super long and i think it's stationary. It always comes out of the same place and then like stretches out and eats things or something. mine's probably 6" long and like a cream color.
