Default Blue Bristle Worm
Check out this nasty thing I found eating coral recently. I don't often see blue bristle worms & yes that red part is it's mouth.
It was tough to get a clear picture, darn thing kept moving.

It's actually quite pretty I think, but coral eater...argh! Need a Wrasse! My Melanurus nails any worms he's finds.

This isn't fair Greg. Not only do your corals looks awesome, your pest look awesome. What'd the secret?

Not sure a regular size wrasse would tackle this thing, it was about 4 inches long and could stretch to about 7-8".

I know I have several in my soft coral tank and they don't bother anything in there. I pulled this bad boy out of my frag tank. Must have been in some rock I added to the frag tank that I pulled from my sump a while ago.
