Bristle worms

[TwentyfiveCents]

So I have been upping my feeding to increase my phos&nitrate levels and my bristle worm pop has exploded. Read that bristle worms are not an issue but what about a huge population of them? I dont want them to get to the point where there is not enough food and they start picking at random corals/clams looks for somthing. What reef safe predator can I put in there that is not a crab or wrasse

Their population is self regulating.

Meaning, that if you slow down the feedings, they will die back to their available food source.

Other then a wrasse or an arrow crab, not sure much else will hunt them proactively.

FWIW.....

Their mouths are like straws, they can only "suck up" food. They literally suck up rotten flesh like soup.

They do not have teeth, they cannot bite anything.
