Looks like a bristleworm they are good to have and help clean the tank. Highly unlikely it killed the fish, the are usually seen eating the dead fish which is why people think they kill fish when they are just cleaning up.

I have them in my tank. Have you checked the parameters of your tank and when did you set it up?

I agree. They are the "first" responders to dead or Dieing fish. Keeping things clean. So a good thing to have.
