How do I tell if a bristle worm is bad?

[Reeffreak]

So I have there two bristle worms in my tank, good size ones at that. In the past I have quickly taken measures to eradicate these from my tank. However after reading many posts on this board, I am trying to change my opinion on them. What I need to know is how do I tell if I have one of the few bad types of worms?

This is still a new tank and I will soon be transferring my corals over from an existing tank and wouldn't want anything to be eaten during the middle of the night.

Hi Steve, Dr Ron had the same question asked of him recently and he said that the chances of getting a bad bristle worm in our aquariums was so remote that there is no need to worry about it.

Okay, thanks for the response!

Here is another question. If these two worms are of of different species, so they won't reproduce sexually, will they reproduce Asexually?
