Why?

Hi George,

Check out these three articles by Ron Shimek:

http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-03/rs/index.php Basic
bristleworm information

http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-04/rs/index.php Large worms
found in aquaria

http://www.reefkeeping.com/issues/2003-05/rs/index.php Small worms
found in aquaria

The second and third links are the most 'on-point' about how to regard
your worm population. The bottom line is that the vast majority of
worms that you're likely to have are beneficial scavengers or
detrivores and that the few exceptions are not too difficult to remove
manually.

Vermicularly yours,

Alex
