Weird looking worms

[FrostyKevin]

I see a few reddish-orange worms with yellow bristles the other night. Are these bristle worms dangerous?

While there are a few species that cause problems, they are generally beneficial scavengers. I wouldn't worry about them unless you start seeing issues.

Only dangerous to your fingers... If you touch one they will leave the bristles in your fingers and it hurts... They don't hurt anything in your tank thou... Hth
