My soft coral are being attacked.

[ELYTE_K]

Hi guys. Thanks for stopping by.
So this morning I noticed my xenias, FS, mushrooms and even zoas
Having spots on then..

I caught one on the glass and
Looks to be pinkish with a center
That looks to have a creamish color.
It's very small and look oval
With what looks to be a v cut neat the end..

Does anyone know what it is?? How to treat them
To get them out? Any help is greatly appreciated :}

Bluemon: I looked that up and it's not that.
Also they are very small they have a soft shell, they seam
To be killed easy "once they are on the glass" just don't know
What to do once on coral.

Slapshot: I'm on mobile and don't have a lap top to upload one :[

Flatworms.

Ding ding ding!!!

Sushi girl you have it right. I just googled it
And the images came back positive.
Thank so much for you guys help.
I shall now google this and take
The proper steps to eliminate :} YAAAAY!

do some research on flatworm exit. it's got pros for FW eradication, but some definate drawbacks as well. me personally, it didn't work, they kept coming back. it wasn't until i got a melanaurus wrasse did i finally get rid of them all. that fish is an awesome, beautiful fish to have but they have been know to attack snails/shrimps.

Yes +1 on the wrasse. I have a melanarus and a leopard wrasse mine don't bother my inverts but it not 100% that the one you may get will be invert safe.

I did to reaserch Spaces and I must agre with both you n APBonds..
FWE can kill your coral due to all the toxins they release..
I'm sad to I form that some of my mushrooms are starting to loose color
In them and turn white. Anywhere the FW land, seams to slowly eat away..
Have u guys heard of this? I'll post pictures tomorrow
Sony guys can see.
Some mushrooms look see through.. The FS don't open up as they did.
Surely I'm picking up a wrass tomorrow.. I don't wanna loose any coral
But will gain a new member to the fam :}
