Yeah I would agree that they are good for the tank.

Get a pair of gloves and work around them if its that big of a deal for you.

If you do trap them and get lots ill come and take them:wink:

But they're icky!!! :razz:

and they taste awful:(

heres something i bet most people dont know , you can actually pick a bristle worm up and not have them stick you , its when you make them mad or scare them they tighten up and push their bristles out.

i caught one a while ago that was floating, i didnt realize it was a bristle worm i actually let it crawl across my hand.....no bristles.

now if i went to pick it up with tweasers or squeezed it or poked it it would have been all over my hand.

drop one on a plate with some water after a few seconds for them to stop being mad their bristles do not stick out like they were.

when you see them move across the rocks they have bristles in neat little bunches , a bristle worm that is mad has a full vest of bristles going in every direction;)


still though...theyre icky and taste bad sooo :P:P

Arrow Crabs eat bristle worms. I had one a while back cleaned most of them out of my tank.

But not all, and that's what she's after, no bristle worms in the tank, period.

Unfortunately there will always be bristleworms in the tank. Always. Waiting....

Do we dare ask how you figured this one out?

Have to be gentle so it doesn't get stuck in throat.

its never a good idea to lay your spaghetti bowl on your bubble traps:mrgreen:
