Coralife Energy Savers ACLAF9550 Trap-Em Bristle Worm Trap

3 months ago I bought nice coral but few days after that I've notice few little guys crawling around it...after doing my research it appeared to be a bristle worm..some people would tell that's good for you and these worms are great scavengers but for me they look really creepy :) so I decided to buy a banded shrimp which didn't work out at all and last nigh I saw 1 bristle worm in my aquarium 10'' long and almost had a hearth attack :)..Today I went to the Aquarium Store to get six line wrasse and arrow crab but end up buying Trap Em Bristle Worm Trap.

I sat it up right after coming back from the store and after 5 minutes I got the first one around 5''...after 30 minutes the big one 10'' tried to get to the bite but couldn't fit into the hole :) but it was enough to pull him out...that's a big relief that this trap actually worked even in day time...

Thanks "Coralife"..you saved the day for me :)

If you have bristle worm I'm sure it'll help you to at least reducing the number of these guys..if you wanna keep them that's fine but they're growing really fast and to really big size...I'd rather stay with my hermit crabs and snails doing my clean-up job...

Good Luck.

I was a bit skeptical when I first was researching these bristle worm traps, but I quickly changed my mind. My tank was being taken over by bristle worms. They were coming out at all times of the day and night. They were everywhere. We tried getting a banded shrimp which ate a few but not even close to the amount we needed it too. Just using this trap less than 10 times, I have caught more than 100 worms. The directions tell you to leave the trap in all night, but I found that the worms just find their way out after an hour or so. I put the trap in with the bait, and watch the worms travel into the tube. After about 15 minutes I take the tube out and move it to a different spot in the tank. It works like a charm!

I would recommend this bristle worm trap to anyone!

any fish can just drop it and the inside part open.

the two parts disassemble very easy too so the final objective is lost.

Conceptually the design of the trap is sound and it does work. However, apparently it works best when placed within 1 inch of a suspected Bristle worm habitate. So far I've captured 3 or 4 worms in the trap. Most are small, less than 1/2 inch long, the largest worm I've trapped so far was about 2.5 inches long. The bait included with the trap is dried brine shrimp, which does not seem to attract the worms as quickly as using bait such as sliversides, fresh shrimp, or bits of scallop. While it is true that the more industrious could make a homemade trap that will work as well if not better, this isn't a complete waste of time for those who don't want to mess around with homebuilt traps.

The contraption seems simple enough but after multiple tries we were unable to catch it but we think someone else ate him!
