[PIPITGANG]

[elox02]

To be fair they at one point were considered bad.

[z838mx]

Wow not only do you have no clue about your shrimp you also have no idea its a bristle worm that is benifical part of your reef. Your a meat head!

[navycook2]

Your a Chode!!! Way to make your self look like an ass!!! HAHAHA

[muffemod]

@navycook2 Oh the irony...

[DrDollarGeneral]

Do work.

[RichardV2012]

It is bristle worm. They are a very helpful part to a reef tank. They work all day to clean up leftover food and detritus in your tank. Not bad at all :)

[WWpictures100]

Coral banded he can kill fish careful and bristle worms are good for your tank but that doesnt look like a bristle to me

[Rapalaboy1999]

@WWpictures100 yes, they can kill fish he killed my entire livestock except for my clowns, damsels, shrimp, and snail it sucked because it was $150 worth of fish.

[cuda70bill]

[txenvy26]

[rarityd]

[preble]

bristle worm....is...not...bad....

[gedankenwelten]

Bad wooorm all way across the sky! It's so intense! Double bad worm getting eaten by shrimp OMG! Man it almost looks like a triple bad worm!! Oooooh, it's so intense!

No hard feekings thoug ;) .

[TheKleinReef]

my coral banded shrimp won't even come out with the lights on. :(

[FlintSparkedStudios]

How do those worms just end up in tanks?

[gedankenwelten]

@FlintSparkedStudios

Living stones are harvested from natural coral reefs..so there are all sorts of organisms and(or their eggs in it. Buing living stones is like getting a surprise :D . Some organisms show up more often than others though. E.g. worms like these.

[FlintSparkedStudios]

@gedankenwelten Hmmm so there's a gamble when you want the best for an aquarium haha

[mbren28568]

@FlintSparkedStudios In reef tanks you start with "live rock" - this is rock that has all kinds of stuff living in it - worms among them....snails, sponges etc. Sometimes the worms just show up as part of the rock when you first put it into the tank.

Not sure why this guy is so excited: thats a beneficial bristle worm being torn apart by a coral banded shrimp (not a cleaner, as he says).

[BHBKOTNICK]

thats a coral banded shrimp but cool video

[MrAxelcampbell]

Not a cleaner shrimp, it's a coral banded shrimp.

[oslo9000]

thats a baaaaaaaaaaaaad worm

[thomasscheliga]

Coral Banded shrimp = not cleaner... not in the least bit. they have those claws to hunt not clean

[buraccha]

if i have these worms in my tank, is it prefer to buy a worm eater shrimp?

[boroboy70]

Coral banded or a boxing shrimp not a cleaner.

Love watching these guys.

Although my breeding pair actually cleaned my yellow and regal tangs

[djrichimc]

awsome sounds like ali vs frazer commetry... that's a bad little ali OH look at frazer hes gona tear up ALI OH thats my ALI thats my FRAZER cought in the rocks Oh zoom in on him wow thats my boy there LOL

[HavePride1]

yea, thats a coral banded, not a cleaner.

[Lilithwyn420]

@HavePride1 Also known as a boxer shrimp, i have one of these in my 55 gal saltwater tank. My little boxer cleans my huge pink hairy rock...they are all "cleaners" just not named so lol

[magicstix0r]

@HavePride1 He meant "cleaner" as in hitman shrimp. ;P

[AustinPhagele]

@HavePride1 my first thought as well.

[bobdrinks]

@HavePride1 they r also cleaner shrimps!

[kevkapawski]

How many L's are in Look? LLLLLLLLOOK LLLLLLOOK... USA Yeah!!!! Some teen Americans are so annoying YEAH!!!USA YEAH!!!

[ArizonaFishkeeping]

I know it's been said, but this is a beneficial worm. They eat detritus and leftover fish food and help keep our tanks clean. Large worms can be a problem but it takes a long time to get that size. Fish will easily recover from the bristles. My orchid dottyback eats the worm and always gets an eyeful but is fine in a couple of weeks.

On a side note...the coral banded shrimp actually IS a cleaner shrimp. Search YouTube "Coral Banded Shrimp Cleaning Yellow Tang" to see a video of it.

[BrettsReef]

@ArizonaFishkeeping 100% correct

[ReefTanks411]

Are you high?

[seanyroche]

@ReefTanks411 look at him look at him look at him eat it, awsome thats a bad little worm. lmao his comentry is so funny

[loon3y667]

mate that bristleworm is small compared to my one thats over 12" they way your going on you would think it was a giant lmfao hahahaha but i like your clowns mate there nice

[muffemod]

"THAT'S MAH BOI"

[carolito03]

@sclucas7 Hi lucas. I have a question. So far I have seen 5 bristle worms in my tank and I do not want them. hehehehe.... I was thinking about what would be the best thing to do without affecting my fish. I mean I have a cleaner shrimp and I would like to keep it safe. So far I have seen the arrow crabs and the coral banded shrimp..... do you have any experience with this two bristle eaters? What would be the best way to kill the bristle worms without affecting my cleaner shrimp. Thank you

[shutupnumnuts]

@sclucas7 You are right, they are beneficial for your tank but they actually can harm the other animals in your tank. Bristle worms can inject their bristles into other animals. It's happened to me when I move my rocks :(

[RussWLW2004]

gotta love people who dunno anything about their own aquariums

[XxGce360xX]

Coral banded shrimp* not cleaner shrimp. But still, thats pretty awesome :)

[NurseWalczak]

That's not a cleaner shrimp its a coral banded shrimp. ;)

[dannym1994]

@NurseWalczak yeah it is they clean tho too

[YoshiSnipeU]

this is why i keep cleaners in my tanks lol

[IERKRUGER]
