I was doing some maintenance on my aquarium. I have a 40 gallon all in one. I took some macro algae out of my refugium and put it in a bowl of salt water and when I did, I noticed that I have red flat worms living in my refugee. I’ve never seen them in the display ever. How much of an issue is this?
 
A scooter blenny will be all over the moon for these😀 They use Photosynthesis and can multiply fast but - IMO - no problems because there is fish that eat them.

Right now i have a black comb tooth blenny, a pair of clarkii and a hawk fish. Not sure i could keep another fish maybe a 6line
 
I have 35 + fish in my 80 G...........

Because you do not have them in your DT - maybe one of your fish eat them.
