I noticed this lobo Khol has been having some issues notice some white buildup on the side look like worms. Took the coral out and decided to dip it today in a revive and iodine dip. Then I noticed these white worms looking things were coming out like crazy. Was wondering if anyone had any more information on what these are and how big of an issue is it for my reef tank? Also, any information on Treatment. I have a 55 gallon reef tank with tons of other corals.
