Bristleworms

I hate them, they are big ugly, and they give me nightmares, how do i make them go away?

Less food getting to the bottom and traps but food is the underline problem.

Here is stuff from a old meeting.

They are very beneficial and serve an important purpose. They help keep your tank clean, besides I'm not sure you could get rid of them without killing everything else in your tank as well.

Cut back your feeding, their numbers will decrease

was reading on line the other day that arrowcrabs eat bristle worms, not sure if they are reef safe or not,
looked really cool though lol

i dont think much of anything will eat the giant ones i have in my tank, about 6-12 inches long, and about as big around as my pinkie,
i have learned to live with them, i play a little game with them, when i see a big one, i spear it

The last time I was at Kims I noticed he had a bristleworm trap for sale, but IMHO I would keep them in there.
