50/50 on the CBB. I think I have fewer of the vermetids now that I have a CBB but they are definitely not eradicated (CBB at approx. 18 months now, so it's not like he hasn't had enough time to find them).
They say vermetids are harmless but I'm not so sure. That webbing will annoy corals, and a coral that's annoyed enough can die on you, soooo ..... I guess draw your own conclusions but I personally don't care for them. I let them live on my overflow and plumbing but on the rocks next to corals I snip them off when they get to a size that I can get my coral snippers around them.

I have something similar on my LR. They are little tubes that stick out, and whenever there is stuff in the water (mini sandstorm, from cleaning or whatever) they shoot out their webs for food, and then suck them in. I dont really like them, they seem to be multiplying, so I am going to try and get rid of them...Any other suggestions besides shrimp?

You can just snip them off with a tool of some kind. Side cutters, frag cutters, etc.. Just be sure to get as low as possible because they can retreat into the tube, if you don't cut under them then you just give them a haircut essentially.

Ya, that is possible, it is hard to tell. I will take a pic before I cut them, and you guys can see what you think.
