Creepy Crawly ID

[ajremington68]

Caught this little guy, would Like to note I have caught a bigger worm before and killed it not knowing what is was, then I found out it was a bristle worm and they are actually good. I saw another one a couple of weeks back and I couldn't catch a picture of it before it went back in my rocks. But I turned over my GSP on my sand bed and this little guy was hanging out under it. Anyone help me ID it and decide if I should throw him back in if he is a good CUC and not a pest? Thanks to all who can help! The picture with alot of things inside of the foam cup is the worm I caught a month or two back, you guys think its the same or different?

It just looks like a piece of a bristleworm that got cut off, or a smaller bristleworm.

Yup, bristle worm. They are good scavengers but they can also over run a system given time. I won't put lot of effort in removing them but using teh reasoning "too much of a good thing is bad" I'll remove any if it's convenient.

Thanks ya guys

Just have small net nearby when you move rocks etc, you can cull if to many, if you miss them, wave the net over, they’ll float!
