Bristleworms

[davidf4615]

Are they good or bad to have in a reef tank?

 

[dailydriven911]

imo they are good. Detritous eaters, just watch out for the big ones...

I agree...They are supposed to be pretty good scavengers. Just be careful not to touch them. Heard it is painful! :shock:

Krish you mean you have not gotten stuck by bristle worms? From some of your other exploits off the boat (fire coral ?) bristle worms probably wouldn't phase ya . Sure phased me when my finger became a pincushion for a little one!!!

Hi,

These guys are great scavengers, I recently posted a thread on these myself as I had some fish go under strange circumstances? I have two very large ones crawling around within the LR and are over a foot in length, I tend to gently move things before commiting fingers as they are intimidating!
