Hi- I have these small white worms on the inside of the tank on the glass. Does anyone know what these are and how I can get rid of them

They are probably planaria and if so, are harmless. They are usually a sign of poor water quality. Some fish actually eat them as a treat! A good gravel vac. should get rid of 'em.
