I know that I have flatworms, just wondering what they are, and if there is a more passive approach to getting them out of my tank than the typical flatworm-exit etc.
Thanks!

Appear to be Acoel which are not coral predators. A wrasse will happily reduce the numbers for you.

Thanks, that’s what I had thought they where. Glad my corals aren’t in any immediate danger, but there are half a million of them.
