My question is what type of flat worm this is and should I just toss this frag. I just ordered 11 frags from this vendor and have 9 other frags in qt.

Obviously going to dip and scrape the frags before placing in qt. The frag was marked freebie and appears to be a favia or something similar.
I saw no other flat warms in other bags floating them now.

Let me know will toss it if no one can id it.
If you're doing qt, why not just dip/scrape and observe for a bit? There's a good chance if it was prolific in the vendor's system that there may be eggs on other frags...

Could be didn't see anymore in the dip but they will be qt for 6 weeks so I can dip and scrape every frag weekly. and dip twice the week of putting it in with two different dips. Aqua SD but haven't seen any terrible pest in past from them.

I have hundreds of dollars in frags in there and this was a freebie that I didn't ordered was thinking if it was a bad flat worm not worth the risk.
