    Yea, bristle worms for me too.. Not only cause they look creepy but I am scared crapless of accidentally touching one. I've been reefing for over a year and have yet been touched by one... I'm still waiting for it though lol

    yeah, a little bit. I cant say that im freaked out by anything, but i always worry that my emerald crab is gonna crawl on my hand when im picking up rocks or something. IDK why, just freaks me out. reminds me of spiders.

    I can't really say I'm freaked out by anything in my tank.

    I even had bristle worm crawl over my fingers once when moving a Zoa frag - didn't sting me at all. If anything, it kind of tickled.

    I think about the "scariest" thing I've encountered in my tank was the first time my (now deceased) Green Spotted Puffer bit me.

    Sea hares. Even though they are helpful for the tank, they just look really creepy and ugly. And yeah, also bristleworms for me.
