I am a researcher, currently exploring coral aquaculture. I have Echinogorgia, Menella, Anella & Bebryce species of sea fans. Lately, I have noticed some red and white striped worms on my corals. Today, I took one of the specimens and dipped it in an iodine bath to remove worms. It turns out they are small brittle stars. Now, I am confused about whether to dip others or not. Because as I've searched the internet, it says they are hitchhikers. The question is, are they safe? Please guide me.
