worm...

[Nanoreefjj22w]

Ok so I have a huge worm that is really freaking me out, I think it's just a bristle worm which is supposed to be good but I want to double check... it is hairy on both sides starts skinny then gets fatter then skinny again.. definitely has some chompers on him.. grey in color. If this isn't a good worm I want him out asap it's giving me nightmares lol

Yep.....Bristleworm. Normally good but when they get large, they can be a problem.

I have a 5" pink one with white bristles that hides in my rock work and only comes out when I feed reefroids. It goes berserk when I feed that and if I ever need to get it out I'll just feed the rr and pull him out with tweezers. No issues to date though and it is extremely cool looking. No touchy though! Ouch!!!!

Cool looking??? I guess if you are into syfy horror movies lol. He seems to stick to one place and comes out at feeding time I could get him but I guess if he isn't hurting anything he is fine
