I think you're overreacting to his question, which is completely valid.
Why WOULD any child be grabbing at rockwork INSIDE a tank?
and bristle worms hide inside rock so even a passing grab at a rock (unless around feeding or after lights out) wouldn't result in a bristle worm sting.

Consider the barriers involved to get to the worm (tank cover, tank, water, rockwork) It would take some work for a child to get contact with a bristle worm.
