Lifting up a rock to see a writhing mass of bristle worms bothers me more.

Think of it this way.... The nastier it is, the better your skimmer is working .... And that's a good thing

I'm fine with skimmer goo, bristle worms and even the 3 ft worm.....but if I ever have to remove another dead turbo snail before the contents have been cleaned out?...... I'm quitting the hobby
