Brown stuff on torch and hammer coral

[darnoc23]

Anyone know what these brown stuff that's growing on top of my hammer and torch corals? Is it brown jelly? They seem to be doing fine but the brown stuff have been multiplying. TIA.

I believe brown jelly appears at the polyp-skeleton edges and not on top.

Thanks. I had flatworms on my mushroom and they were more blackish and moved. These guys aren't moving. I'll try dipping them in CoralRx and see if it removes them.

Thank you!! Just saw the video right after my previous reply. Dang, looks like that's what I have. Will be dipping. Thanks again.

Definitely flatworms! Just blow up the picture of the hammer, you can actually see them.
