Pink bristle worm - keep or nuke?

Post by El Scorpio »

Found two pink bristle worms in my tank today. Can't get a good picture but they appear to be Pareurythoe as listed on this website http://www.chucksaddiction.com/hitchworms.html. I don't know if bristle worms are good or not but I've heard some bad things about them. I put the worms in a separate container until I figure out what to do with them.

Why does everyone want to toss everything they find in their SW tank? I've never gotten rid of anything in any of mine.
