Hello all!
I was just brushing my tank today and noticed several of these on my glass. It’s hard to say how many, but I’m fearing that my tank may be “infested”. Can anyone help identify these and possibly suggest a course of action for remedying the problem? Thanks in advance!

Its not a red planaria cause i dont see 3 tails like they usually have only 2. So im leaning towards an aceol flatworm or ghost flatworm.
