I’ve had this hammer coral for 2 months and a few days ago started looking less than happy. No polyp loss yet just retracted.Got these little brown worm like slugs crawling on it, awful photo. They move pretty fast and avoid my forceps. What are they to be likely? Can I do a diluted peroxide dip on them maybe?

Awful photo but I’m certain it’s red flat worms. Nothing else seems agitated but it’s definitely just a few on my hammer coral. Is siphoning my best form of defense? I’m not sure what they came in on, I did bring home some turbo snails a few weeks ago but it’s been 2+ months since I have received corals.
