Maybe pot worms? Not sure how they got in your coco. I have some in my vermicompost and I can see them without magnification but they are tiny. Apparently they like higher ph and moisture but are not terrible to have (still break down food in the bin) Except red wigglers like lower ph and less moist so I’m working on fixing that. They hitchhiked with the wigglers when I bought them.

How do I kill these bugs, one person recommended me to use hydrogen peroxide, after I google, it seems not completely correct

I’ve haven’t tried to kill off anything with hydrogen peroxide only because I haven’t needed to yet. But I’ve read it works. If they are pot worms I don’t think they are that bad. Like having red wigglers in your soil won’t hurt.

I haven't seen any fungus adults yet, maybe they are pot worms like you said. But they are with the mycelium, I don't like them very much.

Probably just nematodes. Whether or not you want that species is the question.
Water with some predatory nematodes and worry no more.
