my parents are going through the process of getting the tank finished, and we saw these worms when we got live rock. now from what I understand bristle worms, can be pesty, but arent much of a problem, but fire worms are bad. the worms we have look exacly like that one, some are pretty small, but a few are that size, is that a regular bristle worm, or a fireworm.
@420simpson Hi. This one is regular bristle worm. They are good addition to your tank. Arrow crab will just help to balance their numbers because too many of them is a problem. Fire worms look similar so its good to check regularly and get rid of them. Arrow crab will help too;-) Thanks for watching.
Anybody know if you can have an arrow crab with a brittle starfish? my tank is overrun with brislteworms and i have a severe phobia of these things because theres no way i am going in the same room as my fishtank. PLEASE help.

Really neat. The killer looks so alien. :)

Will the arrow crab harass and kill your brittle star?
- Not likely unless it's very hungry!
Arrow crabs are predators on crustaceans and molluscs.
I have a flame hawkfish that took care of my bristle worm problem as well as all the fire worms.
