I hate them and every time I found one I pull it out, my fingers count more than have them as part of the cleaning crew, they can grow big time, and if one brakes the other part became another bristle, I guess that I want to have a reef tank free of this guy's, I want to look at my corals and enjoy looking at them with out the worries of also putting my hands on my tank and get a painful sting of a bristle, I hear that some times they like to munch on some type of corals, not mine!
I have a 70 gallon reef tank and so far I haven't seen no more after I pull tree from a rock, yesterday I was working on my bio cube which I'm turning it into a reef too, I found a bristle under a coral I place few days ago, for some reason I keep finding bristles all the time on this one and ask myself where are they coming from, but I'm ready to take my live rock and deep it on fresh water and Alka zeltzer to kill what ever is on those 3 rocks. I believe that if bristle or not depends on what u like but as I read u have a very good cleaning crew with out the bristle already.
