OldManSea Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 You will end up with many of these bristleworms over time. They are good scavengers. Many species grow very long. 1 1 Quote Link to comment
Theshivinator Posted February 16, 2018 Author Share Posted February 16, 2018 Thank you guys so much ! Just making sure I didn’t need to take him out Quote Link to comment
Cintax Posted February 16, 2018 Share Posted February 16, 2018 No worries! A bit of caution, some people get a skin reaction from the bristles if they brush up against the worm. So just be careful if you have to handle them. Quote Link to comment
Clown79 Posted February 17, 2018 Share Posted February 17, 2018 Wear gloves when handling rocks, corals, or going through sand. It hurts when you touch bristle worms and infection can occur with any open wound exposed to bacteria 1 Quote Link to comment
