imo, its a healthy part of an ecosystem , i believe when you remove things like this you do more harm then good, as bad as it hurts to have the bristles get you, they are 100% beneficial to your tank.

if someone doubts how good they are then overfeed like crazy....the fact that they reproduce very fast in tanks over fed easily means they are consuming the food sources.

fwiw...bristle worms do jobs and get places that no other cuc can get at

Yeah I would agree that they are good for the tank.

Get a pair of gloves and work around them if its that big of a deal for you.
