Wormie

have some worm's that the first 1/4 of an inch is kind of an orange or a pinkish color ad the other couple of inches are black or a dark color....they are either
Polychaete - Eurythoe sp
OR
Polychaete - Syllidae
Either one how do I get rid of them...
How many is unknown....
I only know what rock they live in or around.....

Not typically easy to get, you could tear your whole tank apart, or let him be.
If neither of those options are good, dont blame ya..

They make various types of traps, some have had luck with. Search around the threads you will see plenty o info.

Good luck

 

Theres no way I would pay for a trap for 30 bux for a few worms....
....No kinda fish for these or maybe the arrow crab....I am not sure what kind of worms he eats thnx anyways.....You know anything about the arrow crab?
Danny

 

I wouldnt be surprised if an arrow crab would eat them. Doesnt hurt to have something in your tank to fend off bristle worms anyway.

 

That trap was for viewing. There are many easy ways to DIY this for < 5.00 or so.

I suspect they work the same for your kind of worm.

Looks too risky for me anyway.

Says only may eat Bristle Worms, but will likley bother my CBS and other life.

You could always wait till it gets big enough that it cant fit under the rocks and pull it out. Bristleworm with Seaweed Clip - 3reef Photos
