A fellow reefer sent me these pics of an invasion in her 210 gallon mixed reef tank. Are they flat worms? They are on a colt coral, frog spawn and other corals. What is the best treatment for them? She also has acrapora eating nudibrachs. Is there a way to treat for both at the same time?

There is no picture showing :) but I'm going to go ahead right away bring the king of pests ids into the thread @KJ if he doesn't know then it doesn't exist ;)
 
The worst stuff I have ever del with are algae and asterina stars. I go years without adding anything to my tank because I am paranoid about introducing something. How to treat?

These are planarian flat worms. They love soft coral tissue, spread like fire but easily die in a dip like bayer or coral rx
