I've got a few big boys like that as well!  I had one a long time ago I caught and put in the fuge.  It climbed out of the fuge and fell on to the bucket sitting beside the fuge.  I think I have pictures of it.

That is one nasty looking worm.The bristle in my tank is about 15-18 inches.When he comes out at feeding time I can see him moving through the rock work all curled up.

Wow, I didn't think bristle worms got that big.  :o  I like them, but do pull the big ones out if I catch them.  There are plenty of smaller ones around anyway.

I've got the heebie jeebies now.  I've been stung pretty bad by a bristleworm...and I can't stand them now. 

Speaking of Eunice worms...I just got one out of my tank the other day...although he was uber tiny compared to either of the above two worms.  I'm guessing he was probably only 4 inches long.

I used to see Bristles in my tank all the time.  (tiny ones)  ever since I got my Banana Wrasse, its hard to find even one of them!  He seems to like them and plays with them for a bit before he eats them.
