just wondering how big the biggest brissle worm in your tank is... i saw one in my tank finally came way way out of the LR and he was stretched out about 2 feet and still had part of him inside the LR...

Probably just 5"... I've been stung by them quite a few times too. When you touch mine they leave a bunch of little white hairs in your finger that cause your skin to tighten and swell. The feeling is sort of like being burnt but only mildly so.

I hope I never find one of those things in my tank, and if I do i guess i'm gonna need a mutant of a coral banded shrimp or wrasse to kill it
