That blue CBS isn't going to get much larger than it already is, so it's only going to be able to eat very small ones if it eats any at all (mine never did). You'll definitely need the traps.

I agree with this post. Short of using bone dry rock and never adding anything to the tank coral wise, it's a loosing battle. They will always be there.

Just gonna stay on the hunt until I feel it's safe to put my Blastos back into their rock. Then we'll see what happens. Thanks for all of the input.

when i started my 50g i used bone dry rock and carib sea sand in a bag. i added very few corals over the year and a half or 2 that its been running. and i gotta say i am amazed at how many of these things are in my tank. there must be thousands lol. they come outta the sand and the rocks when the lights go out. they are litterally everywhere lol.

as far as i know they are all bristleworms it seems i either have 2 different ones or maybe they are the same just different size. the smaller ones stay in the sand and the bigger ones seem to favor the rocks.
