If you HAD to pick, which pest would you be ok with having in your tank?

Totally hypothetical (of course) but I'm quite curious! I think I'd pick bristle worms.

Not sure if bristle worms are pest, unless you have a really really large one. Green bubble algae actually looks nice, just as long as it doesn't take over the tank.

Bristleworms are the only one that has pros to it and has manageable ways to reduce them now with 3d printed traps.

Well, couldn't select more than one. Bristle worms are only a pest if the population is large enough multiple adults can be seen at one time and no juviniles can be found when looked for. Rest are all issues that can be dealt with in one way or another. Nuisance alga are a secondary issue and in my experience only require manual removal.

Definitely bristle worms. Aside from having to pull barbs out of my finger tips, they are harmless.
