That is what I was thinking. I have had fire worms, which look VERY similiar to the avg. bristle worms..but they eat SPS. However, in order to eat the SPS they have to gum it for hours or days at a time. When they do this, it is obvious that the fireworm has latched onto the coral and you can just grab it with tweezers and pull it off.
