I have been noticing that my hammer’s skeleton has been decaying/being eaten for the last few days. I didn’t want to unglue it to inspect it but my emerald crab knocked it over this morning. I picked it up and saw a clear/white curled up worm or something sucking on the skeleton. It was excreting something clear or brown. Any idea what it is or how to get rid of it? I got some tweezers out and tried to pull it off and it was hard. I wasn’t able to get a picture but I can try to when I get back home.
 
Could be flatworm. Need pics.
