Saw some reeeeeally small flatworms on my torch today. Doesn't seem to be bothering it, or the adjacent torches. Looked around and saw ~5 on the glass, doesn't look like a large population just yet.

Anyone got advice on whether these are friend, foe or neither?

55 gallon system with 20 gallon sump. 1 Midas blenny, 2 royal Grammas, 2 clownfish, 1 banghai cardinal fish. Think I'd have room for a wrasse, if needed?

Maybe red planaria flatworm?
 
Thanks! Wrasse it is. Time to start shopping, thinking 6 line or leopard wrasse.
