Uh...I guess I'm not always up on the latest fads...I thought we didn't
like bristle worms because they are jerks and eat coral and anemones...?


No, they do not eat corals and anemones... :-)
I have one in my tank ( that I know about) My tank is about 8 years old
and I saw him the first time around year 2. It was small , maybe 3 -4"
long. It has since grown very big. I would guess it is about 8" long.
I never see all of it , only parts of it exposed if I come a look at the
tank in the middle of the night with a flashlight. It is big because
when it retreats to the rock it takes a long time for all of it to snake
its way back into its hole. I have never felt that it has ever done any
damage to anything in my tank. I think it only cruises as a detrivore
cleaning up. I just let it alone and ignore it. I know what rock it
lives in but I just leave it there. It is wild when you see it exposed
and then it crawls back into cover. Cool.
I think you can just leave it alone
