FYI: Not a big fan of parasites or wormy looking things. Tonight, I found a teeny tiny little purple and orange worm peeking out of one of the rocks. Did a little research and it turns out it's a bristle worm, which needs to be nabbed w/ forceps since their spikes contain some sort or irritant AND they happen to massacre coral. NOT good! Seriously, worms make me want to gag! I HATE parasites! Ack! Gag! Barf!
Here's some info I found:

ADD TO CART: Stainless steel coral maintenance tools
PS: Remind me to remind Brad to bring that pesky red-light headlamp over one of these days so I can yank these suckers out

i dont know who told you bristle worms are bad, they are great detrius eaters and will quickly rid of any uneaten food.
