LF-coral banded shrimp
 
Does anyone have one to get rid of or know of a shop that has some..It is of my understanding they will help control bristle worms?...

We have some rather large preditory bristles in our tank which are very smart at both avoiding traps/munching inverts{2 confirmed soft coral kills}

We had the same problem. Bought the green trap at big al's ($20 for 10cents of plastic+bait) and it worked like a charm. It got ~12 bristle worms over 2 weeks of use. Some were over 8" long. Have not seen any since(2 months)- hopefully it got them all. Works best right before your regular feeding time. If it does not get them within 60 min you have to remove it and try again the next day so bait stays fresh.
