Couldn’t you just hug this guy
I found a 6 to 8 inch bristle worm in my 120 gallon tank this morning. I never did get a good look at him while he was in the tank, so I grabbed the tweezers and pulled him out,... well... at least a part of him anyways. It wasn’t until I got him out of the tank that I noticed he was just a bristle worm.
But man, do those things ever look like something you would expect to see on a science fiction horror movie when you get a chance to look at them out of the tank and up-close in real life.
If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

Gads. You guys are nuts. That thing is ugly. Is this the only one you have, Cliff?

LOL, no, I'm pretty sure these guys are like rats, for every one you see there is likely 100 more in hiding. That;s a good thing tho. Bristle worms really do help keep a tank clean.
I just didn't recognize him as a bristle worm at 4am. All the other ones that I have seen were 1 inch or less.If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.
