I voted other fish. My orchid dottyback ate all of my worms.

We have the same ones as you Sydney, we have never seen them touch our healthy corals. We definately do not have any of the same ones as the ones in Samw's picture, they have different 'heads' and look like they are a different colour from what I can see. We don't use any specific method to control them.
