Hi Guys,

I've had this "Mini SPS Colony" in my tank for about 3 months, it was growing quiet well to start with but for the last two months its been slowly losing flesh, I originally thought it was just down to shading so i moved it to pretty much directly under one of my lights to try and eliminate as much shading as possible.

I've just taken some pictures of it with a Macro Lens and unless I'm going mad I'm sure I can see some type of pest on the skeleton.

Wondering if someone could help me ID and provide some advice on treatment before they spread, currently all other SPS corals are happy and growing.

As I mentioned earlier, I'm saying flatworm. Am I the only one seeing this in their pics????
