hi I had quite a few of them and last night I saw a really big one grab a piece of nori and take it into his hole I hope it's just a normal bristle worm as I can live with that otherwise I need to nuke my tank XD


(please don't be a fireworm or some other bad SOB)

Looks like it to me. Creepy things aren’t allowed in my tank, I could care less what they do for it.
firstly I love your username I was watching the office maybe about an hour ago I wonder what Dwight would do maybe sell them on his beet farm, and secondly I bloody hate them they make me cringe but better to be good one than the bad :D
 
I should have gone to sleep look at these beasts feasting

They def are a solid part of the clean up crew. But I can’t stand the sight of them, so that’s gonna be a no for me dawg. Dwight would totally have them doing his dirty work.

I agree they are disgusting but I'm happy to know they are the good guys and not the bad ones as I saw a tiny bit of red on them and I thought I hope it's not fireworms.

thanks again
 
why are your bristleworms so "CHUNKY" the bristles in my nano tank are like 2mm in width and orange.
Yours look like the Kraken.
 
Yes, bristle worm, I have plenty. They eat macro algae though. Now that my algae took off it is not a problem, but I had to catch them when my macro were just starting.

Steriods I've been feeding them chicken lol no idea mate the rock is like 8 years old so I guess they have been feasting like no tomorrow lol
 
I would have never thought they ate algea I thought it was just detritus but they will literally eat everything and anything
