    ive been wondering about certain worms.i know some are bad and some are good.but i was wondering if we feed them to our fish that if we had a small stock of them would the fish eat them all at once or will they get out of hand and reproduce like crazy.anyone have any idea if its possible to keep them?

    Bristle Worm

    I pulled a BW out of my reef and tried to feed it to my Green Wolf Eel (who would eat a baby human if you put it in the tank) and he spit it out like it was a piece of hot coal.
