Do you mean bristlworms? No, they won't eat those. They eat little tiny worms and critters in your sandbed. Having one or two can be cool, as they are super interesting to look at.
Nope I meant bisma worms. Like Christmas tree worms in porities coral. I've got about 15-20 of the snails(it's a 12' tank), I'm kind of concerned because there are 5 on the porities coral & im worried they are eating the much desired bisma worms.

They can eat any small soft bodied critter in the sandbed, like worms and such. I'm sure they would come off of the sand to hunt, if they stripped the sandbed. Christmas tree worms and the general serpulidae family are hidden in rocks and tubes, however, and can withdrawal, so they would not be bumble bee victims.
15 - 20 is too many.

Sorry about the typo ... oops. thank you for the insight.how many bbees would you suggest for a 400g tank ?Currently we have an unknown amount of stomella snails, 6 nassarius,1 cerith, about 10 small trochus,10 margarita,(jimmy buffet comes to mind)1 silver conch,1 orange conch,3 peppermint shrimp,2 skunk 2 fire shrimp,1 cucumber I haven't seen since it went in, a couple electric flame scallops,1 abalone,2 urchins, (2 -6 spot gobies work the sand as well)In QT there are: a spiny oyster,10 more margarita/ trochus snails and some feather duster colonies, the fish spend a great deal of their time eating upcoming generations of snails.
