They will eat just about anything they can find.

fireworms are more dangerous than bristle though

They eat mostly detritus. If you see them munching on a coral it will most likely be because the coral has an infection and it is just cleaning it. I thought they were eating my toadstool, but then I noticed that it was cleaning and area that was stung by my frogspawn.
