Critters
 
So I was trying to remove the antheliea (SP) off of my rocks knowing full well that I am just spreading it all over my tank, when I came across these critters. The snails are off of my clam-I beleive they are pyramid snails. What is the best way to get rid of these? I removed all of the snails I could see on the shell, but am worried about eggs and them coming back.

I know bristle worms are not harmfull in small sizes, but these guys are 3 inches!

I have tonnes of bristles, they have never caused me any problems. They only seem to come out after a feeding to clean up what is left.

Wouldn't worry about the worm but great catch on the snails, you probably saved you clam.

For the snails, read a 6 Line Wrasse will help but now you know you have them, would be doing the occasional inspections.
