Suddenly I have some pods and worms! Wow. No idea where they came from :/

These are the worms. What kind and are they harmful?

Flatworms? I have no clue :/ they look weird tho. Is your tank still cycling cause that might just be a bloom of something. I had waves of weird stuff when mine was going through it :D

Mine is a new tank but it's cycled long ago. Are the weird stuff still in your tank?

I have no idea. Can you try to take better pics if they don’t go in to hiding? Is that purple looking thing to right of the rock in the front a tunicate?

@KJ and @Lovemyreef2015 and @DSC reef are much better at this.

No no I dont have any tunicate. It's just rock. That's the best pics I can take. But thanks Scott!

Are they flat or do they look like they have little hairs on them. The picture is to blurry to make out any features. I'm thinking a type of dorvilleidae worm but can't be sure without at least more description.

how old is the tank and do you have any fish, crabs or other animals in it yet?

I have no clue what those are - but I'll bet there's a wrasse out there somewhere that would love to snack on them.
