Looking to find out what kind of flatworms I have in my 13.5 evo tank, its possibly 3 different species. Its nothing serious or damaging. I am just curious in what species they are. Im tired of seeing them everywhere, so boutta kill them all!! 🧙‍♂️

Maybe someone here with personal experience knows exactly what these guys are

Second and third image is a Convolutriloba species. Could be C. macropyga (long central lobe, green color, red diamond shaped spot at the end), but the exact identification is a bit tricky, see page 7, post 127 and especially page 9, post 173 of my microscopy thread. I have been diving pretty deep into their identification lately.
