Help! Tapeworms?!

[M!NK]

Help! I noticed that one of my ghost shrimp had white-colored guts, but thought nothing of it since it was very small and was sure it would go away, but it grew and grew and now it's taken up the entire spool of guts! Now I'm parasite-phobic, so I think it's a tapeworm, but has anyone dealt with this before and its not a tapeworm? Shrimp has shown a lot of signs of stressed behavior like glass-riding, not eating as much as usual, etc. also, another one of them has the strange growth now! Help, please! Will this affect all of the fish in the tank too??

That looks like horsehair worms, it will eventually bust out of the shrimp and affect the others, best to separate it from the others and see if you can get some medication safe for shrimp to treat it...... Also, just in case there are more, treat the whole tank
