Post a pic of your biggest bristle worm and win nothing. I just found a real monster in my tank. Will try to get a good pic if he comes back out.

The worm from Oregon Reef was a eunicid, actually. We had one of those as well, around 14". I'd have to look to see if I could find the pictures of it. I've never had much of a bristle population.

Yeah, he had PVC holding the rock structure up in a tank that was along the lines of an 800g tank. Pretty crazy.

Coralfan... 36"?! Did you name it? Get a photo of it? I would have been shrieking like a little girl over that one! I had all I could do to get a 14 incher out of the tank. I would not have been able to remove one nearly as tall as my kids!

Dam!!! I thought the one in my tank was big at 6 to 7 inches. You should hook one up and catch a fat striper!! It could be the trick to the slow season.

I found it living in a sponge. I was trying to remove the sponge and saw what looked like many worms inside it, as i was trying to remove it (which took almost an hour) a small piece broke off (that piece was 14"). The only pic I managed to get is with my phone, not very good.
