1. My stingray eats shrimp in the DT

2. I saw a bristleworm in fuge
3. I want one, and thought , maybe that could work....and I look at my fuge A LOT
4. I could always move it to 29g when it is set up-

I always keep scavengers in my fuge... I have a monkey shrimp in mine, which is pretty cool.

Just out of curiosity, why do you want to get rid of bristle worms in your fuge? They are pretty beneficial scavengers that are well helpful to have in the fuge. I like to cultivate as much life as possible in my fuge. That's what gets rid of excess nitrates, nutrients, uneaten food, etc.

I HATE THEM

NO, seriously...Can they get from the fuge to the DT? I realize they are good in a way, but do not want too many..if you know what I mean.

I have a ginormo peppermint shrimp and i have seen hip shred the biggest aptasia in my tank that none of the little ones would touch. I have also seen one of my tiny peppermint shrimps tear a bristle in half and eat the end closest to him. After that i was afraid to put my hand in the tank ever since.lol
