Up the water changes. Too much particulate matter free floating in your tank. Lower the amount you feed. What are the residents of your tank and sizes please.....

It is just planaria, a nematode that mostly lives in the substrate and eats detritus.
Up the gravel vacs and this should reduce them. Harmless though...
