Is this AEFW or some else?

I found this guy on the glass. 1/2 inch size. No others alike...
Is this AEFW or some else?

its a flatworm alright, the real question here is which kind.

First of all by the time your see flatworms on your glass your tank must be totally infected, so I'm leaning towards good ol fashion flatworms (planaria) and not the kind you are worried(AEFW) although still possible you must check your corals for bite marks and so forth.

Nerite snail eggs are typically around your tank and in your glass, this does not look like one but keep it in mind.

+1 for flatworm. +1 for not aefw.

To be safe, I would sure give my acros a extremely detailed inspection looking for aefw bites. Also baste or powerhead them and see if any aefw come flying off. Your fish will thank you.

+2 or something on the ID and definitely get a turkey baster. I use one in my tank every couple days just to make sure that nothing has settled on my corals.

Looks like one of the kinds of flatworms that came off my corals. Do you see any bite marks, or other damage to your coral?

Took some macro shots but cant see any evidence of fw activity...
Currently having some acro tips reccess but i've heard that aefw start from the base or middle. As said havent seen others around and this one is rather big. In last 3-4 months havent got any new corals, only some turbo snails...

if you have any tri-color or millis in your tank take it out and dip it in revive or Procure or try to blow it with PH. usually this bustarrs attack this corals first.
