bristleworm

[DetectiveTofu]

I know I should probably know this but. I know bristleworms are somewhat desirable in the aquarium. However I found a bristleworm about an inch and a half or so creeping around my 10gal nano. It hid before i could take it out. What should I make of this?

tweezers, or get the rock where they hide in and pour seltzer water to get them to evacute the rock while in a separate bin.

HELL NO! hahaha!! the only tolerable thing i seen them do on there was when they made the contestants eat balote (i think thats how you spell it) had a filipino been on that episode they might have asked for some extra to last the rest of the show!

Charles, seltzer water wont harm any life that might be on the rock would it?

I dont know but that's the usual remedy folks use to rid their rock of unwanted pests like mantis or crabs... figure if you lose some life on the piece of rock.. other inhabitants from the other surrounding rocks will inhabit it after.
