[Dannyrb26]

[Marinne13]

Sorry then...don't know another option other than a six line wrasse

 

[Dannyrb26]

thx for the help!

 

[Marinne13]

we tried but you can't take the coral out, can't dip it, can't get them with tweezers...you really have no option to get rid of bristle worms without taking the rock or coral out with them on it or adding a natural predator

Also, critters like Arrow Crabs and peppermint shrimp are good for pests. Arrow may eat worms, as well as coral banded shrimp. Peppermint shrimp got rid of aiptasia for me last year.
