Some type of bristle worm? i looks really thick thought, how long is it?

if you get a small one you should be ok (somewhere in the range of 3-6 ins) but he will outgrow the tank. an upgrade would be needed somewhere down the line. and judgeing by your other fish your going to need to upgrade as the grow anyway.

what brand is the tank and stand?

I really wouldn’t trust the sand from Jones beach, long beach or any of the beaches on the island. The water here is really nasty and I assume the sand would be too. Plus it could have stuff in it that fish in tropical areas around used to.
