My pink streak watchman turns up with a fat one hanging out of his gullet every now and then. I don't know if he eats enough to manage their numbers though.

Arrow crabs, but they have their own drawbacks. Bristleworms are beneficial so long as you don't let their numbers get out of control.

1980's horror flick. Not sure if I'd be able to get through the shower scene on this one.

At that point, just burn the house down.

Oh that video, I've known of it for about 10-12 years I think. But, almost everyday there is a thread "what's this", " I have too many bristleworms", "how many bristleworms are too many", "do I overfeed", something like that. There is always an opportunity. But you gotta wait until the serious business is handled and op is all squared up. Then you get to dump on their thread with stuff like that.
