I think I have a bristle worm in my live rocks, but I don’t know if it’s a fire worm or if I should leave it in the tank. I also have what looks like a peanut worm, and the fish at the end of that video can someone help identify it? I think it is a juvenile zebra blenny. Rocks came from Hawaii.

Welcome to Reef2Reef, duke000!

Video's not working for me either - you could try uploading it to YouTube or a similar hosting service, and linking it from there.

Not very many people working with Hawaiian liverock, I should think!

So I posted them again but I’m pretty sure they are both good to have. Now I think it’s my pistol shrimp that are killing my fish. A green chromis floated up to the top today missing its tail.

Mantis shrimp

I just found this guy today, about a month after my most recent live rocks were added. I believe it is the reason my fish have been disappearing. I think mantis shrimp are really cool and I want to keep it, and my tank is acrylic so I think that it is safe. I believe this is more likely to be the cause of my disappearing fish than the pistol shrimp. Any opinions?

Matis shrimps are not safe and will eat your fish
