Hello gang! Was looking at my tank today and spotted something that looked like it was gliding on the glass about 1mmx2mm. Am I look at flatworms?

Acoel flatworms, not necessarily a problem, unless their populations explode, which they are prone to do.
Thanks for the ID! Wasn't sure what type and consider I have both Acros and Euphyllia I was worried it might be the worst kind


I've got a coral + cuc tank only and I dip all coral prior to putting them in the tank. I assume given the size these are probably some eggs I had missed?

Would the typical solution be something like a 6 line?

Or a Springeri Damselfish or Dottyback for another option. They have cool colors in my opinion. Sixline would work though for sure.
