Need ID on a worm
 

Saw this worm coming out, and then "eating" with this mouth thing you can see in the photo.

An ID would be amazing, it is atleast 2", maybe more, so I am a little worried it is bad.

Thanks


2 Photos, one is cropped.

Looks like the feeding proboscis of a Sipunculida worm (aka peanut worm) mopping up detritus / left over food particles. Harmless critter.

Thanks! Looks like if I lessen my feedings it will die?

Why would you want it to die? You should, in my opinion of course, encourage such life in your aquarium.
