Can Anyone Tell Me If I Should Be Concerned About This Worm I Found On My Glass?

[Onion]

Can anyone tell me if I should be concerned about this worm I found on my glass? I know it isn't a very clear picture but it is the best I could do. It is about 1/4 - 3/8 long. I just noticed it today there seems to be a few of them. We havn't added anything new in well over a month.

Thanks!

Does it have legs on the side or Antenna? When I zoom in it looks like it. It is hard to tell.

If it doesn't have legs or antenna it could be a nematode (round worm) or a ribbon worm. Many are predatory but some are free living and eat detritus. Others eat small invertebrates. Hard to tell from the picture.

Is it segmented?

I looks like it has legs and i would say it is segmented. Its very hard to get my camera to focus on it. Ill try to get a better shot next time i see them.
