is it normal, and or okay to have A LOT of bristle worms, even though the tank is only 5.5 gal? its not a pretty site either, so any tips on removing some of them at least would be greatly appreciated.

my skunk cleaner loves it when i feed him a fat bristle worm. Very cool to watch he quickly removes all the little bristles with his claws.

ehm, if they are just bristle worms, you don't need to do anything about them. They can only maintain a population that the available food can sustain. Don't worry. Just be sure they are regular friendly bristle worms.

that kinda looks more like a fire worm rather than a bw...which would actually be bad...i saw something like that in my tank and took it out to prevent it from escaping...

No that's just a regular BW.
