Planaria? Worms that appear to feed on the food that's unconsumed by the fauna. It's often a sign of over feeding.

What is that? is it mould,dirt or worms? if it is moving then is it worms and you have a problem.
Anyway the pics are not clear.

Planaria can attack the shrimplets and smaller shrimps that are molting. Some online articles mention that the organism can leave behind a slime that is poisonous to sensitive shrimps.

I am using guppies to control the planaria invasion in my tank. I would not say 100% clear, probably left less than 20% in my case.
