Bristleworms in general are good guys. They are a good member of the cleanup crew. Just dont touch them! 😊 2 1 Quote Link to comment

Jesterrace Posted March 20, 2019 Share Posted March 20, 2019 Just keep an eye on them and make sure they don't get too big. If you are getting a bunch of them, you might be overfeeding a bit. 1 Quote Link to comment
MylesOleary7 Posted March 31, 2019 Author Share Posted March 31, 2019 Thanks everybody. What happens if they get too big? Quote Link to comment
Jesterrace Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 Sometimes if they get really big they can bother other life in the tank. If you had a bigger tank I would recommend a Halichoeres Wrasse to help keep the population in check. Quote Link to comment
