That is very awesome I think I'll try that there's about seven or eight different traps that i found on YouTube. I'm scared of the buggers and with 150 lbs coming I'm super scared

I agree they scare me 2, I have some huge ones in my tank would love to get rid of, i was told they are good thing to have in there, i have just got some small peppermint shrimp. i am scared the worms might eat them

Bristleworms are not really pests and are beneficial scavengers in reef tanks. They are not attractive except to another bristle worm but otherwise there is no strong reason to remove them. If you want to keep their population in check, filefish and some wrasses will decimate bristleworms. Any bristleworm I catch in my filter socks or sump, I just throw back into the main reef as live food.

never heard about these worms till now. I has saltwater tanks before and never seen them before.
