I just dipped a frag I received last week that has been in my qt tank and found this tiny flat worm. It has a forked tail. Should I be concerned?
Thanks

indeed a flatworm. It is likely harmless if it's small, but can reproduce fast and cover corals pretty bad. I would attempt to not allow them in my display. I applaud you for running corals through quarantine as well.
It’s really hard to tell in those pictures. I recently posted a similar thread for a bristleworm that is very wide like yours here. Does it look like this?does anyone know if this is a bristle or fireworm? its a zoomed in photo...
