Are you sure he is not hiding? Hollow? Molt perhaps? I don't see a bristle worm eating the entire thing in two minutes.

I dont know what I did wrong he was eating like crazy cleaning off a rock I had, half of the rock was clean then all of a sudden he dropped dead...

I did a drip when I first got him, made it last about an hour and changed half the water once the volumed doubled etc. Rather sad thats now 2 inverts I have lost. A peppermint shrimp and a Blue Tuxedo urchin
