I recently had to remove a 3mm flatworm away from my Rainbow Bubble Tip Anemone, very odd but it came off very easily with a turkey baster.

I wish I had taken a photo but I was too surprised to document the situation, has anyone experienced similar issues?

Photos would have helped. Generally where there is one, there are more with flatworms. They also lay eggs which lead to infestations.
