Baby Bristle Worm, and friend or foe is a much debated topic.
+1. I normally get rid of them
Thank you all. I guess I will do my research but will pull out whatever I see. Is there an easy way to eradicate? As if anything is easy in this hobby.

They sell traps if you really want them out. If not just get a flash light out after the tank lights have been off and you can see them. They can get very large and those are the ones you want out. So get some long tweezers and grab them then scream like a girl as you run to the trash can or toilet.

Pseudochromis are good at keeping them in check.
I chuck them everytime i change the filter sock. If they are showing up in the sock means you got to many lol. IMO.
Good to know this since I recently aquired a Neon Dottyback. I used to not mind bristles but after unknowingly getting tagged by one on the palm of my hand when removing some rock.....out they go.
AW... dont say that... Say it aint so. I am surprised I have not seen them in the past. I check my tank just about every night with a flash light. They ugly for sure
The worm is very impressive but did you take a look at the acros is that guys tank. The set up he has sick.
