OK, I've had this Bristle worm in my tank for atleast 2-3 months and its gotten really really big, I haven't seen its entire body, but its about 4 inches long, I'm guessing it is.
I tried to lure it out of its hole using frozen silversides and it came out partially, but wouldn't go out anymore. This Bristle worm lives right above my diamond watchman goby's hole, so it piles everything it finds right where the bristle worm is. So I leave for 2 minutes, and my goby throws the silversides right onto the bristleworm and it ate it!!
So my question is, How do I get it out?! Its probably full now because it was just fed silversides, is there any trap I can make, my lfs doesn't have anything. I'm afraid that the bristle worm will find a hole that leads to where the goby sleeps and eat it or something.
I was thinking that maybe I could pinch the bristle worms head off with tweezers. Would that kill it? Or would it grow back?
I also have a large Coral Banded Shrimp, maybe I could lure it out to where the Bristle Worm is and maybe it'll catch it?
