Thumbs up Large bristle worm is eating hair algae!

I recently have noticed a large bristle worm that is in my tank. I debated on whether I should get him out of there or not. No damage to any corals, so I was just going to leave him be. Sad to say, I had a few patches of hair algae...which have miraculously disappeared. Yesterday, I saw him come out and I watched him grab a big mouthful of hair algae and go back in his hole. I watched him do this several times now. Maybe you have seen this before, but I was shocked. I'm going to try and get a picture. Anyway, what do you all think? I think it is a good thing, but there is only a small patch left and will he move on to corals???

he shouldn't travel on to he corals, he'll probably eat leftover food, and pretyy soon you'll have about 10000000 of the worms
