    They should be good in your 46 gallon. Id put them in your sump though. They get pretty large. Sometimes eat small fishes if they get big enough. Great scavengers though. :D

    Safe and part of the CUC. They are scavengers.

    It looked odd to us because it was more of a meal worm than what we have seen bristle worms look like. The exoskeleton is hard instead of soft and there is only a small amout of bristles on the body. Better safe than sorry.
