Who eats worms?

So I thought it would be sort of funny to put that title, but seriously... I have a plague of planaria (brown/red flat worms) and spaghetti worms are starting to show up everywhere(I counted 17 yesterday). I have read various threads on here and done searches and have found that certain wrasses are suppose to eat planaria and that mandarin's will eat an occasional flat worm. My six line wrasse doesn't seem to touch them.

So, is there a fish out there that will consume both of these worms? What eats spaghetti worms? Do you think that a sand sifting goby would help reduce the amount of worms I have?

These are the olny things that I have found that will eat red flatworms, tried the wrasse, mandrians, but they never touched them.
