Bristle worms

[i have crabs]

just for the record regular bristle worms are very reefsafe scavengers that clean up detritis and left over food,the problem i had was just them doing thier job just not when i wanted it done,and the problem with the goby and the corals are only from the one kind of bristle refered to as a fireworm wich is not reefsafe and should be removed and returned to the ocean via the toilet.

I have a red headed goby that frequently has gets "spined" as well. Mine always seems to get stuck in the eyes only. He has yet to suffer any permanent damage. Life is hard in the aquarium.

i had the same problem as you all i can say it i took all the rock that did not have corals on it and dipped them in boiling water and all i can say is ill bet you are only seeing 25% of what is in there and the other things i did was get an arrow crab and a lunar wrass and they were all gone in a short while a lunar wrass is too big for your tank so i would go with a 6 line i hope this helps a bit
