On the coral you dipped, do you see any bite marks?
no you can't .. i have seen the acopora eating flatworms and the bite marks .. but on the corals what i dipped there was no bite marks and these are really really tiny guys ..

Based on what you've said -
If you run GFO, I would stop that immediately.
I'd do a couple of large water changes over a couple days (like 35% or more) to get those elements back to normal.
Then I'd try Reef Energy A & B if that doesn't help.
As always, go slow so you know what works (or shock anything).

Hmm, I'm not familiar with that type of Flatworm, maybe someone else can chime in with experience on those.

Good investigative work there. It does not look like AEFW to me, but could be wrong. Still if it was on your sticks I would consider them suspect. In this guide they refer to that species as Acoel flatworms.
