The best predator is you, a pair of tweezers and a stiff drink

 

is there a reason you why you don't want to use an arrow crab? Mine killed mine quickly.

 

Im gonna have to find some long tweezers, I've seen them but don't know who carries them? any leads? I had a arrow crab but he was so obsessed with Mysis shrimp and would literaly run from one end of the tank to the other as the food circled the tank so I gave him to another club member. I may get another and try not to spoil this one!

 

I ordered my long tweezers from amazon. I think they were about 6 bucks. After a little practice you'll be a bristle worm eliminating machine.

 

Why would you want to get rid of all of your bristle worms? They're pretty decent detrivors and do a fair job at keeping the sand bed stirred.

 

I've got BW's on steroids I had 3 of them taking Mysis right off the sun corals as they were being fed. I think in "sun valley" there are about 18 or so. !!!(The right side of my tank is now thanks to Helen is now called sun valley)

 

You could take my arrow and see how he works out for you if you want.

 

Mine look like this, but creepier and meaner.

 

That would be great, I'll bring him back after he decimates the population down to something reasonable.

 

I love that pic, lola's got 6 new heads just popping out Ill try to get a pic

 

That many, huh? I guess you could add just about any type of wrasse to at least take care of the bold ones who show their faces.

 

New pics

 

Good one MINION, my wife has mentioned about a ,fairy wrasse,that she saw somewhere. I was unaware that they like BW

 

They only eat the little baby ones. You must slay the monsters.

 

Oh dear and I have a monster I found last night, he's reddish in color, showed me both ends but not the middle. Is that like giving the bristle finger? Anyway, I thought mine was living INSIDE the rock, not in the sand. I was going to try to dip him since the mushrooms could use a dip. Will he come out? I don't mind the little grey/black ones but this big reddish one might be related to Helen's... EEEK! And he was gone before I could even reach for the tweezers. And I'm afraid I'm not much of a drinker. Yet.
