Do you kill bristleworms?

Chowder you are right. It is a Eunicid word. After reading and looking at SAMW post. It is exactly the same only a bit bigger. It would explain the clicking I have heard in my tank for the last 5 years. No pistol shrimp or peacock shrimp. I was wondering all those missing Zoos frags and sometimes missing inverts, I thought they melted or something. This would explain why my boxing zoos were gone next day after I placed them in a darker part of the tank.

I guess I need to catch him. I was really shocked and startled when I saw the thing. I guess he has been in there for over 6 years in my humble 50 gallon tank. He gives me the hebe jebes.

Happy hunting. Maybe someone will want to give it a nice home. They aren't as common as the regular bristle worm so someone may like to collect it.
