Flat worms on fairy wrasse?

I have a male yellow sided fairy wrasse and it has flatworms living on its body. At first I thought it had a fungal disease until I looked closely and realized there are 3 or 4 almost clear milky white flatworms crawling around on it. They are about 1/8 inch in size. I did an extensive Google search but was not able to find anything about this condition. These things don't look like a fluke, but I'm no biologist, lol. The wrasse doesn't seem to be under any stress. What are your thoughts?
