The dull reddish worms you pulled out are medium sized Bristleworms, not a Eunice (Bobbit) or Fireworms. Eunice worms won't have bristles, they'll look like Centipedes, and Fireworms will have a shiny metallic looking shine to them.

You can argue about this if you'd like, but TBH I'd worry more about why you're losing fish and coral if the worms you pulled aren't the issue.

I don’t know but you might want to straighten his person out too.

your guy has proper information and is saying everything right, the other guy I'm going to find and straighten out because he has been misled

I was joking. Azidoazide azide (C2N14) is an extremely sensitive explosive. Like, looking at it the wrong way causes it to explode. :D
Yeah, it's too delicate the nitrogens don't like that arrangement

Azide salts are used in airbags also, not to mention they use the much less sensitive sodium azide to induce mutations in plant cells.
