Great cause I just found another one. If I can coax him out of the rock I'll try and get a pic.

Bristleworm wise, when I see large ones (when they start turning a grey/light purple color) I pluck them out (if I can) and put them in the sump.

 

This is what new born baby bristleworms look like (they swarm at night when they are born/hatched and then they like to crawl into crevices, and the space between the frag rack and the glass works for them)

Arrow Crabs will eat them.  but they will also eat your fish if they get hungry and lucky.  Several wrasses will eat the bristle worms, not sure about the bobbit.

Coral banded Shrimp also eat them.  Mine got lazy because he figured out he can chase the clown fish away from their food pellets.  Greedy little...........
