Is this a flatworm?

I was just looking at my tank and saw something that looked kinda like coralline algae, but too symmetrical. Is this a flatworm I'm looking at?

Thanks,

Does it move? and if so is it a gliding motion or an inchworm like motion? If it glides flatworm is probably the right ID.
 
Yeah it moved rather smoothly and quite slowly. I almost didn't even notice its motion at first. This is the first one I've seen so is there anything I should/can do early on to stop them?
