I found this guy in my tank when the lights were off. The other one was hanging on the life rock and definitely had some bristles. What is if? Bristle worm or something straight from the hell?

Hard to tell from the pic, but certainly looks like bristleworm. If so, excellent CUC members that'll stir up your sand, eat detritus, and clean the nooks and crannies of your rock work. Probably the ugliest creature that'll be lurking around our tanks and certainly not appealing, but they definitely pay their rent in cleanup duties.

I swear, It really creeped me out when I saw it I'm not a fun of any kind of bugs, especially the ugly ones, but I could use a pair of hands or even bristles to clean the tank

lol just don't get brave and try to remove it barehand. Their bristles are like fiberglass splinters that get stuck in your skin. If you ever are in that situation, vinegar does wonders.

Tiggs, I wouldn't even dare to touch those suckers. Right now I'm a little concerned with putting my hands in the tank next time, and would only tolerate them for their benefits
