Bristleworm?

I have tons in my nano. They get bigger than that and are kind of unsightly. I use mine as a form of nutrient export. When they get big, I pull them out and whatever nutrients are in them leave the tank. Is this effective/efficient nutrient export? No. Do I like bristleworms? No. It works for me.
I'd pull him.

When they are grabable... I remove the large ones too..... like pruning macro :-)

No reason to pull him out. they're great detrivores that get into places you can't.

I leave all the Linopherus species alone. I rather like them with their cool eyes. The large Eurythoe species have a muscle to them and if they get lazy and get themselves in a spot I can remove them.... out they come. I would never go through any trouble to get one out though.

I'd like to buy some for my refugium. Any sellers out there? Id prefer smaller ones.

Yup, this variety has eyeballz. But you must admit, they're kind puppy dog eyes. Not mean ole eyes.

Great, in small numbers.
I pull big ones to prevent things like this (not my store/tank)
