Hi, im not new to aquariums, but yes to this problem, i think.
I leave here at Mexico, and on my new 130G aquarium, i bought some "CURED" live rock.
The other day i took on piece of LR, to rearrenge the aquascaping, i saw some red worms moving on the rock. What i suposse is that they are bristle worms.
SO i just wanted to know, if these are bad for the aquarium, fish or coral. Or any extra information youve got.

Thanks a lot

Good for the tank. They're scavengers, can't hurt corals or fish. If a fish or coral dies, they'll dispose of it ASAP and sometimes save a coral by eating away dead tissue and letting the healthy heal.
