So I have never been able to tell the difference between a bristle worm and a fire worm does anyone have a good way to tell?? I got a shot of one in my nano that I want to make sure isn't a fireworm.

Sorry the picture is a little blurry it hard to get a picture of him.

Shape does look a bit scary. But its impossable to tell with this pic.
 
Looks like all the bristles I have in my tank in shape and size. But I can't see the color under blue light, use white lights. The orange and blueish ones are the most common bristle worms. Great at cleaning.
 
I think its a bristle. Legs (bristles) are further apart.
