Question Bristle worms

After doing yet more reading I know that a six line wrasse and a four line wrasse are great for eating bristle worms and flat worms. What other fish or critters eat them?

Also hell on bristle worms: Dottyback, Wrasse of the Halichoeres family, Bird Wrasse (Gomphosus varius), Maori Wrasse (Cheilinus oxycephalus), Sunset Wrasse (Thalassoma lutescens), Arrow Crab (Stenorhynchus setrcornis)...


Also CB Shrimp (Stenopus hispidus)











Let us know what you come up with.

Good luck!

Unless you have PVC for them to live in, you shouldn't worry. How old is your tank?
