Reef Safe?

[superman1013]

is this bristle worm reef safe? Just found like 4 of them living in the rockworks....

I found this pic on the internet it looks exactly like the ones that I got...

if you can see 1, you have thousands they are fine and the can grow pretty large and ugly, but they do serve a purpose. You will see them burrowing in your substrate at night as well

I've not had a problem with them.

thanks for all your responses... know if they will bother corals that are on the rocks?

Unless the tissue is dead or dying, then no. It appears that you have one of the most beneficial bristleworms, Eurythoe sp. (probably complanata).

The only time I would remove them is when they get large, or you start to see them out during the day.
