| Re: Need Quick ID on this Worm Please That is the one I posted pics of a few months back that we could not ID. I finally flushed him out while cleaning and soaking that particular piece of rock. So I should definitely make him go bye bye? He is still in a bucket right now. He is about 8 - 9" long when i pick him up with the grabbers and he twists around real fast.

| Re: Need Quick ID on this Worm Please If you got a bristle worm that size def. toss him out. They usually don't cause problems but once they get to be big like that one they can so I would "dispose" of him.
