    Think of this. Your sitting in a dog house & you have someone with arms that are 6 feet long at the doorway trying to kill you. You think your still safe because he still hasn't yanked you out yet, but wait you have out grown your house & need to leave & find a new one. Your dead... Sorry, this was the end results of all my crabs & snails..

    You have to look at it this way. If you want coral, crabs, shrimps, & snails I would return it. If you want a fish only system that you should be find, but it can still kill fish if it wants too.

    Bristleworm population will decline if you don't overfeed.

    In a BIG tank it would be ok to have BUT I still wouldn't get it in fear that it would destroy everything. I would put the booger in a tank of its own or return it.

    You are correct.. K+ You'll always have worms.. Personally I like them, they keep the sand bed clean from left over food & other waste.
