SRC Member remus Posted April 25, 2018 SRC Member Share Posted April 25, 2018 Jus wanted to ask do u all remove bristleworm from your tank. I kind of hate them as they are quite big in size. I have a rock with a small cave for my fire goby and inside the cave there is a bristle worm which I not sure how long but it look big from the tail. Around picky finger so fat. Do u think I should remove the rock? I used to have one rock that have a bristleworm one foot Long. When I Decom I use hot water and pour onto the rock. That why I know it a foot Long when it came out. I jus want to seek opinion here whether u all think I should remove the rock with it inside ?

polar Posted July 20, 2018 Share Posted July 20, 2018 It’s beneficial for detritus removal. I don’t remove it, in fact, I introduce it into my tank. But make sure it is bristle worm and not fire worm. Fire worm is detrimental to corals. The difference between bristle and fire worm is that fire worm has red sides on them that makes them looks like they’re on fire. Bristle worm the coloratura is duller.Sent from Singapore Reef Club mobile app Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

angel fish Posted July 21, 2018 Share Posted July 21, 2018 Arrow head crabs are predator to bristle worms. They hunt, kill & eat them for breakfast, lunch, dinner n supper. It's their normal diet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
