Worm in my acropora!!!

[Balanophyllia]

There's these 2 little whitish clear worms in my acropora how do I get rid of them? Will a dip with lugols solution help?

No suggestions?

Need more detail or a picture.

Are we talking flatworms ?

 

[Balanophyllia]

They are the ones that are clearish white and are usually on live rock. I think they're called spaghetti worms or something.

I would, the acro will just grow over the superglue.

I've always superglued worms and such that I didn't like in certain acros.

I know exactly what worms your talking about. I think the two is just one with two arms, at least thats how mine are. I have one on my pagoda cup. I tried to pull it out with no luck If the super glue wont hurt your coral it might be worth a try. It has been there a while now and does not seem to bother the pagoda cup.
