Homemade bristke worm traps

[Collatos]

Made a tube and placed brine shrimp in it to catch bristle worms, like the "catch em" trap sold on marinedepot. It didn't work though. Nothing came in except hermit crabs and I checked it several times. Any ideas on other ways? Trying to save some money here

Why are you trying to remove them?

Because they scratched my watchmens face he has this big scrap below his eye and I've seen the bristleworm hanging out of the rock my watchman lives under but the angle is too tight for me to get it w grabbers

Haha i dont mean to laugh but a bristle worm isnt going to scratch your fish....

The sad truth is that your fish might be kinda dumb and ran into a rock. Either that or it has bad tank mates.

Ya a bristle worm won't "scratch" your fish. If anything the bristles would stick into it but that would require the fish to sit on the worm and apply pressure on the bristles. Hit a rock or tankmates. Leave the worms.
