Pest ID on coralline algae

[tblock]

Noticed these little reddish/brown critters on all my coralline algae. Can't quite make out what they are, but want to get rid of them asap. Thanks!

Flat worms

I agree I think, it seems to fit the profile.

Flatworm exit should kill them. I think salifert makes it.

Before you start adding chemicals to the tank you might want to build yourself a siphon like the one in the link below and manually remove as many as you can first. You might not even need to use the Flatworm eXit. GL.

Could get one of those flat worm eating nudis.

Thanks for the input.. Tried the flatworm exit yesterday and noticed an immediate effect. The flatworms in my reef are very very small, smaller than a grain of sand so siphoning is almost impossible.
