Default seriously creapy


Guessing you got the same thing I just recently asked about
here...bristleworms...and as I've been advised by the folks here,
they're helpful since they apparently eat detritus (there's a couple
of species which are harmful, but I've been told they're not commonly
found in live rock)

yep, that's it. strange, they're in both tanks in the live rock. i read some
of the prior posts. what did you ever do? i saw that corallife has a trap.- Hide quoted text -

Well my tank is relatively new, and I'm new to the hobby as well...so
for the time being I'm following the advice of this NG and of my LFS
and leaving them be...the hermits and snails in the tank don't seem to
mind them, and they've actually disappeared for the last few days
again.

The biggest thing I've gathered in my research is that it's best to
determine WHY they are showing up now, particularly if you have an
aged tank setup...they usually only pop out when there's an excess of
waste/extra food in the tank from my understanding...
