Can someone please identify these little white sea monsters? Occasionally dozens of them magically appear on the glass overnight.

Thanks

Look like some type of flatworm.

Most of the flatworms we come across in the hobby are 'bad' hitchhikers.

Best to remove them if you can.
Ok thanks.

Waminoa sp. flatworms; not particularly harmful, but they like to sit on corals and can smother them by blocking out the light if their population grows large enough.
