Hi all, I recieved 2x acros from a reputable online vendor 2 days ago, performed a 5 minute coralRX bath, rinsed, and into the display they went. I noticed 2 very small specs this morning on one of the acros before the lights came on, which prompted a 2nd dip. 3 little bugs fell off. They hardly move, but even after the 2nd dip i saw 1 still on the frag. Theres decent polyp extension and no bite marks. is this a common acropora eating flatworm or something less concerning? The shop said it didnt look like a flatworm to him but im not really convinced.. sorry for the subpar photos.
