Peanuts are good.
Your red tip is a bristleworm with an epitoke.

What's an epitoke?

Epitoke is a reproductive stage of a bristleworm.

Is this going to be safe for the reef i'm going to start. I dont want it to eat any of the corals. I found some other bristle worms that were very red with almost transparent bristles that i couldn't get. I've heard mix things about them.

out of the thousands of species of bristleworms very few are harmful to corals. the majority are great clean up crew members ...unless you see them actually eating corals i wouldn't worry at all.
