Too many Bristleworms??

S

I have a seahorse tank and when I feed I have noticed that I can see maybe 20-30 bristleworms in one field of view come out in hopes to munch on something. I was curious if you can get too many??

I know the common thought on here is they are beneficial, but does having that many pose any threat?

I have attached a pic to show you what they look like. I am pretty sure they are in fact bristle worms.

Sorry for the dirty glass in the pic, I need to scrape it.
 
yep,those be bristtle worms.If they get to over populated,you can put a piece of shrimp in a panyhose at night.Be sure to use tongs to pull it out.They get stuck in the hose.Good luck
 
do people actually want bristleworms? Like if I can suction 20 to 30, would they want to add them to their tank?

I am curious, I would hate to kill off hundreds of them with the panty hose thing, when I could give some away? Or are they so common, no one wants them?

Thanks
 
I was able to catch a ton of them, but I have to go out of town, so I put them in my sump for now.

When I get back into town on Tuesday I will bag em up and let you guys know when you can pick them up. Pick up will be in Frisco off of Coit and Main St.
