I kept observing everyday and I didnt see any sign of it, but after a short travel I see packs of flat worms on the polyps of my goniopora, I took a video of it, but they are literally all of it. I am assuming these are the harmful flat warms and should be dealt with? If I am correct what would be the best medication to treat it? I also heard that six-line wrasse would feed on flat worms, is that true and would any other creature be recommended to suppress those worms? Thanks!

Wrasses like melanorus, canary, and many others will take care of them

I do have a yellow wrasse, would he feed on those worms? He doesn't seem to be very interested :(

Reduce his feeding. Maybe they are not a high priority on his menu.
