Are these flat worms or brissle worms They don't seem to be affecting any of my corals just noticed them around Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |
Bristle worm.
Harmless but a indication of available food. Due to over feeding and or lack of cleanup crew |
Okay that's what I figured , seen them start to appear after I added a coral attached to some LR so I guess they must of made there way to my tank

I think we all have these worms. Can be considered part of your cleanup crew.
As mentioned, their numbers will wax/wane depending on the amount of food that is available to them. Can be burdensome if they get too large, as in 4-6 inches. But some people state they don't mind them large. If a problem, place some shrimp, leftover food into a piece of nylon stocking overnight. The worms will catch their feet into the nylon, and in the morning, chuck the nylon. |
I've got a monster one in my tank. I haven't seen both ends at one time ever. I haven't seen any ill effects from it being in my system. I do see it eating excess food if there is any.
