Any idea which fw type this is and if so, should I work to eradicate via FW Exit or let it run it’s course?

The white ones diet is mostly pods from what I have experienced. In my fuge they seem to disappear after a month or so. Came in on some macro algae I think.

Ok thanks all. I also am seeing the same shape as these but brown (acoel). Still better to let them run their own course vs nuking them? I guess the only thing I'm concerned with is the population getting out of hand and having a massive die-off, which ironically is what I'd cause with FW Exit etc. Thoughts?

I have red flat worms in my fuge. Oh no Mr Bill. I tried to kill them off with FW Exit and Prazi Pro. They came back. After 3 tries I gave up. I hired a friend to keep them out of my tank. Say hello to my friend, Mr Wrasse.
