So I snapped a pic of this little darling tonight… going to go ahead and assume I’ll wake up tomorrow morning to a bunch of posts confirming “bristleworm” and “not harmful” or “they eat detritus” and the like…

Go ahead

I’ll leave this here:

The wife can't stand them...lol. Just got an Arrow Crab and a Coral Banded Shrimp to hopefully get rid of them. I got stung bad by a fire worm or bristle moving some rock. They gotta go!

I’ve only ever seen this guy after lights out which is fantastic though he hangs out right where I’ve had my fingers plenty of times. Had a purple and green blasto I had to move because it was getting stung by the Hollywood Stunner chalice stingers overnight and would manually remove GHA every couple weeks for a bit.
Too bad I’m fully stocked and don’t have a coral banded or a dottyback
