hi,

there are alot of methods discussed here in the forum, do a check and usually alot will pop out..

primitive method, is to spot check on ur tank at late nights, using a flashlight den tweezers to catch out worms or crabs..

trapping method, there are plastic bottle method, putting food at the bottom to lure crabs in, but its too slippery for them to climb out..

heard from reefers that bristleworms can get themselves stuck to stocking nets when trying to get food in the stocking net.. i haven't tried this method..

Normally new LR before going into my main tank, I'll do freshwater dip to get rid of the pests.
