[Reef Swimmer]

Ive heard mixed info on brissleworms. Some say they dont eat coral others say other wise. Ive watched videos on the subject and he says they are vitle to a dsb. So which is it.

I have them in my 90 gallon and 14 gallon and haven't seen any signs of them eating coral. I consider them a part of my clean up crew

Yep, if you don't like them Pseudochromis and sometimes longnose hawkfish will eat them. I have seen them get to a foot long.

I have a lot of them they don't bother anything in my tank

I don't believe they eat corals. Dying corals are another story.

I have/had a 8"+ worm that decided my anemone crab was a nice snack, no indication that the crab was dying so I would have to say they are sometimes reef friendly. If they get too big then you may have a problem but I think the smaller ones are not detrimental to coral
