    Does any one know what might eat bristle worms?

    Something has to, just wanted to know if anyone out there knows and whatever it is is it reef safe with the exception of the the bristle worms

    A 6 line wrasse will eat bristle worms, at least smaller bristle worms. I also believe yellow tailed damsels may eat them too, but I could be wrong on that one.

    I have a sixline, never saw him eat a bristle although i have read that as well. But he is a great addition, friendly with everyone and looks great. Was shy for about 2 weeks, swam through the rock work, now hes out all the time. Good luck

    I've seen my six line attack and eat a small bristle, and attack and kill a larger one (ate part of it). A 6 line wrasse definately gets my vote.
