    Yuck! These worms are so gross. I have tried the "Trap-em" thing. They are not going in that tube. Any other suggestions? I thought about getting an orchid dottyback, they eat the worms, Right?:confused:

    Beauty is in the eye of the beholder...or is that beerholder.? :) Anyhow, bristleworms are a necessary evil in a reef tank so unless you've got too many, you really don't want to get rid of them. If you've got too many of them, it's probably because you're overfeeding your tank.

    Never heard of that one before. Humm....

    Edited to remove a quote which contained what could have been harmful advice posted by an internet "troll". Sorry if rickzter's message does not make sense as a result. amcarrig
