    so i bought a live rock today for my 5gallon tank im setting up and i can already see 2 bristlewroms on it, i know bristle worms can get to a foot long but i doubt itll grow that big in a pico but should i leave it in the rock or should i remove them concerning their potential size in a 5 gallon tank?

    It is a dry heat, yeah right !
    I myself would just leave them be. The amount of available food will greatly influence their size.
