Hitchhiker....

We found what looks like a bristle worm in our tank..it's about 1 inch long, with bristles at regular intervals (can't tell right now if the bristles are just along the side or all over), it's pinky-tan color....any idea if it's a good worm or a bad worm....??

Thanks. :-)

I will try to get a picture when I see it again...I know it is hard to tell what it is from my description!

it is a bristle worm, look in your tank with a flashlight covered in red foil or paper. i bet you see a lot more. you can even toss some food in and really watch the frenzy. they are good, they eat ditrius and other waste.

Most of the worms we get in live rock are good to have. This article might help:
