My office tank was full of bristleworms. Everyone in the office hated them. Then I got a magenta dottyback. Now, I have no more bristleworms at all in that tank.

Unfortunately, it also ate my sexy shrimps and coral banded shrimp.

Pretty sure that is a regular bristleworm, Bob, they just don't look as cute when they get to that size.
