Urgent is this hitchhiker bad?!

hey guys just got home from a party and went straight to look at my tank. and found this worm! bristle worm to be exact. some say they're good and some say they're bad ( fire bristle worm to be exact ) but to my knowledge is this worm BAD? its right next to my sunset milli and dont want it to die!




its right under the glued area. its brownish with white fuzzy legs

 

It should be fine.

 

That is really hard to say for sure what it is. If it is a bristle worm, then you want it. It is probably one of the best members of your CuC. It wont eat your corals either. You have to watch out for Fire Worms from what I hear.

 

I can't see the worm, but I was wondering if the little red dots are little bits of coralline or if they are little worms themselves?

 

I think that would coralline IMO

 

watch out man, they grow to massive proportions and they will eat your clownfish

 

I wonder how long that would really take though?

 

most are no problim but if you are concernd and dont thank you want thim git a bassilet (SP.) thay eat thimif you let thim git big the only way to git rid of thim is a trap or tweazers.

 

Pictures or it did not happen!!!!

The bristle worm in my tank is so large I should probably consider upgrading because of him alone.

Lives in the same burrow as my YWG.

Seriously if you get a chance look at the mouth of a bristle worm, it could not catch anything. They eat dead or close to death inhabitants which is a good thing IMO.

 

lol, I would try to sell one that size. ;D
