Stranger Scary Worm In My Tank

[dingweding]

so far i already found 3 of them, i guess they must hatched from some kinda eggs from those plants i bought from local shop.

the worm is very big, scary, about 2cm, has a head like dragonfly. has two legs so it can hold the plants, but no back legs, the rest of body look like a long slim worm, but at the end, it has a tail with two sticks.

what are they, they really scared me, will they harm my fish and shrimps?

did they look like this

Hi

Sounds like a dragon fly larva I think their harmless unless you got tiny fish.
Still in its case half in half out.

hoggie

very similar, but it does not have 6 legs, only 2. meanwhile, the sticks at the tail is not at the left and right side of body, instead it like a normal fish tail, one on the top, the other at the bottom.

what are they?
